Florencia Ferraco, born in Argentina but living in South Australia, is exhibiting some of her paintings at the Marie Hart Gallery in Glenelg. The exhibition, titled “Dichotomy”, focuses on her “Tango” seriers, and will be open until the 20th of June.
Copying from Marie Hart Galleries website:
A reflection of previous years, and the strong influence of feelings of “nostalgia” that Florencia finds herself presenting in this exhibition. The “Tango” series tries to take the audience to a different place and a different culture. She has respected the colours of the traditional Argentine painting “The Fileteado” and presents a visual artistic representation of Tango. Each one of the paintings reminds her to a different song, so she shares with you the lyrics that inspired her. From the restrictions applied to the dance in the 1970’s to the fashionable re-surfacing of the 1990’s. Tango has survived through time thanks to the spirit of its people, feel their presence and seize their essence through this exhibition.
