A few weeks ago I was for two days taking pictures and recording videos in an artistic intervention of an abandoned buttons factory here in Buenos Aires, a great time, very good artist, very good place, with the best organization of the girls of “Algún Lado“.

Here some of the material of those days.

Cementerio La Recoleta

La Recoleta Cemetery is a famous cemetery located in the exclusive Recoleta neighbourhood ofBuenos AiresArgentina. The layout of the cemetery was designed by the French engineerPróspero Catelin, and was remodeled in 1881, while Torcuato de Alvear was mayor of the city, by the Italian architect Juan Antonio Buschiazzo.

The Cemetery includes graves of some of the most influential and important Argentinians, including several presidents, scientists, and wealthy characters. Internationally, Eva Perón is the best-known person buried in this cemetery.

The entrance to the cemetery is through neo-classical gates with tall Greek columns. The cemetery contains many elaborate marble mausoleums, decorated with statues, in a wide variety of architectural styles. The entire cemetery is laid out in sections like city blocks, with wide tree-lined main walkways branching into sidewalks filled with mausoleums.

While many of the mausoleums are in fine shape and well-maintained, others have fallen into disrepair. Several can be found with broken glass and littered with rubbish.

Each mausoleum bears the family name etched into the facade; brass or bronze plaques are added to the front for particular family members. La Recoleta is one of those cemeteries where the tradition of engraving a death date but no birth date has been maintained.
