Nuevo Mundo, Ep. 02 - Argentina
Juan Tamayo | Documentary, Series
2020 | 53 minutes | Chile
In Greater Buenos Aires, muralists and graffiti artists express dissent, from popular muralism to vandalism, narrating a history of crisis.
Synopsis
In the vast expanse of Greater Buenos Aires, muralists and graffiti artists transform walls into dynamic canvases, reflecting a society in constant flux. Through a wide spectrum of expressions, ranging from the deeply rooted tradition of popular muralism to the rebellious act of street vandalism, these artists channel their discontent and creativity. Their work becomes a vivid tapestry that captures the political history of a nation marked by turmoil and enduring crises.
These visual interventions not only document Argentina’s sociopolitical struggles but also ignite debates about public space, memory, and resistance. From the bold slogans of social movements to the raw, untamed marks of graffiti, each stroke on the wall becomes a testament to the resilience and voices of those navigating an ever-changing landscape of hope and tension.
