Description: A selection of art works by female artists related to the mythical Centro Cultural Rojas of the University of Buenos Aires. In the 1990s, Jorge Gumier Maier - a former gay activist, journalist and artist - was the main curator of "El Rojas" where they frequently exhibited individually and collectively different female artists Elba Bairon, Graciela Hasper, Alicia Herrero, Magdalena Jitrik, Fernanda Laguna, Ana López, Ariadna Pastorini, Cristina Schiavi and Magdalena Jitrik, who curated some exhibitions together with Maier until 1993. El Rojas artists, as they came to be known, were characteristic for using craft techniques, vernacular materials, decorative aesthetics, and kitsch, destabilized traditionally held artistic ideals while championing gender and gay stereotypes.
Notes: Published on the occasion of the exhibition held from March 29 to June 23, 2019 at the Colección Fortabat in Buenos Aires.
