Title: Ahora voy a brillar
Description: A retrospective that presents for the first time a large number of art works of combined recycled plastic and glass objects made by the emblematic artist Omar Schiliro (1962-1994) between 1991 and 1994. "In 1991, when he heard about his positive HIV diagnosis, Schiliro became involved in art and began frantically producing. He died on April 3, 1994 as a result of AIDS. Jorge Gumier Maier, his partner and who at that time took care of him until his death, kept a large part of his works in his house and sheltered in a small box with a few documents that give an account of his work in the artistic scene of the first years of the nineties.--Page 69.
