"Persona"
Album
Description
In "Persona", Gerardo Goldwasser offers a critical reflection that stages one aspect, as basic as it is complex, of human societies: the way they cover and exhibit bodies, discipline them, and also distinguish them. The proposal refers to the ways in which every human being is perceived as a person by constructing their appearance, their way of entering onto the scene every day of their life. Goldwasser’s Persona invites and urges us to make history. To look and think about the representation of bodies and their metamorphoses, about the doubts that assault the sciences, the arts, and the myths of our time, in black and white, like the anonymous and undated tailoring manual he inherited from his grandfather.
