Commission has invited to participate “on account of their prestige, their career, and their commitment to human rights”: Roberto Aizenberg, Juan Carlos Distéfano, Norberto Gómez, Leo Vinci, Jenny Holzer and Magdalena Abakanowicz.
Gómez’s sculpture, Torres de la memoria (“Memory Towers”), will be approximately 10 meters long and is inspired by the series of weapons that the artist exhibited in 1985. It represent a giant mace, bristling with small towers which look like sharp cutting objects, which is attached to a long handle that sticks out diagonally, all ornamented with designs of an archaic architecture.
