Afueras

June 26 – July 26, 2008

Opening reception:
Thursday, June 26, 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm

Gallery TPW is pleased to present Afueras, an installation of photographic projections by Argentine artist Rosana Simonassi. Simonassi’s practice has taken her into the uncultivated landscape of many countries. Afueras, loosely translated as Outskirts, is a body of images taken in the central and northeastern territories of Argentina. Transforming the gallery through large scale and ghostly projections, Simonassi’s nocturnal scenes seem at once both alien and open to all possibility.
