After images are optical illusions produced after looking away from the
direct gaze at an image and are caused by retinal persistence
phenomenon. In the video, this is associated with historical trauma:
when blindfolded, prisoners compose images from other sensorial
experiences.
After images (4’ 30’’), 2006.
María Inés Szigety
Three actions are performed by the artist and recorded: she completes
the process of stapling herself to a chair, taping herself to the floor
and sewing herself to a bed. The artifice is constructed to refer to
domestic alienation; the ultimate effect of the imagery is enhanced by
the editing.
Cambios/Changes (5’ 51”), 2005.
Carlos Trilnick
An intervention performed on the infamous goal at the River Plate
stadium, where the 1978 World Cup was played. 25 years on, a gesture
that attempts to mourn for those who did not win the football cup
but lost their lives in the hands
of Estate terror.
1978 - 2003 (7' 34''), 2003.

Camera: Alejandro Schianchi. Concept and editing: Gabriela Golder. Performance: Gabriela Golder.
Silvia Rivas
A dance performed by a community group from the neighbourhood of La Cava.
All that is outside (5’ 28”), 2005.

Granada records the testimony of artist Andrea Fasani, who spent more
than forty days in captivity during the military dictatorship. The
testimony is made of repetitions, automatisms, and somewhat conscious concealments.
