Galeria AFA

santiago- pasaje phillips 16

Beautiful gallery space in downtown Santiago. All photographic work save for the paper mache woman getting head from a goose. Main exhibition by Paloma Villalobos packed a punch in is color but overall left me wanting more. The picture of interesting debris around Berlin compositional tension. The picture taken with the care and standard of an early 1900´s photostudio.
In the KM O wall Javiera Infante explores her fainting in auto-erotic moda d´art. Really well made prints in colors that catch your eye and keep you in a chromagenic sugar high until you see the limp body strewn along the frame.
The office area presented the most interesting work, keeping the goose company of course. Coffeetable height reverse video of blow in the shape of a condor? quetzal? some kind of ´indian´ bird. The other mention is for a duo whose name I must lookup but large scale black&whites of 40´s film noir -ish office with a dig.projection of an exterior space.
