MALBA Puertos / Estudio Herreros

MALBA PUERTOS, the new outpost of the capital institution in Escobar, is not a typical museum but a combination of architectural and landscape actions aimed at creating a gravitational center for artistic and cultural life in the northern region of Buenos Aires Province. At MALBA PUERTOS, three unavoidable interests converge to understand the course of the present: art as a mechanism for questioning the contradictions of the times we live in; the fragility of nature as the basis of our relationship with the world; and attention to communities whose histories, often ignored by the orthodox cultural environment, must be rewritten.
