Wakolda

En el verano de 1960, en la desolada región de la Patagonia, un médico alemán (Alex Brendemühl) conoce a una familia argentina y se une a ellos para seguir la ruta del desierto en caravana. La familia hace renacer en él todas sus obsesiones por la pureza y la perfección. En especial Lilith, una niña casi adolescente con un cuerpo demasiado pequeño para su edad. La fascinación es mutua; en pleno despertar sexual, Lilith siente una inquietante atracción por el forastero. Sin conocer la verdadera identidad del alemán, al llegar a Bariloche, Enzo (Diego Peretti) y Eva (Natalia Oreiro) lo aceptan como primer huésped de su hostería, a orillas del lago Nahuel Huapi. Aunque el extraño personaje despierta en los anfitriones cierto recelo, poco a poco se verán seducidos por sus modales, su distinción, su saber científico y su dinero.

The German Doctor (Wakolda)

The true story of an Argentine family who lived with Josef Mengele without knowing his true identity, and of a girl who fell in love with one of the biggest criminals of all time.

Borderlust 

by Mauricio Paz Viola & Justin Earl Grant

 

“Scientists say that human beings are made of atoms, but a little bird told me that we are also made of stories.”
Eduardo Galeano

 

Mauricio Paz Viola & Justin Earl Grant celebrate their second exhibition together. After their shared experiences in Santiago de Chile 2015, they are reunited once again in the city of Houston.

Borderlust is a reflection on the dynamic experience of how we construct our identity as an emancipatory and paradoxical process.

Paz Viola & Grant’s collection of works present a series of silhouettes of the human figure whose limits are traced and shows the interconnection of the subject with the whole.

Bonderlust aspires to reaffirm the magnitude of possibilities of the expansion of the human being.

Opening //  Saturday September 28 @4:00pm
On view until Sat. Oct. 12th
Mon. – Fri. 10 am – 2 pm

Mon. – Sat. 2pm 6pm visits are by prior appointment: info@justinearlgrant.com
