The appointment will be this Thursday, December 1st from 15.30 in the enclosure located on Calzadilla 1301; there will be presented the southern oratorio composed by the maestro Fernando Lerman, with texts by Gabriel Lerman and the participation of Silvia Iriondo, Daniel Berbedes and Leandro Kalen, as guest musician.

There will be a series of presentations of the work that proposes a contemporary look at the history of the Argentine presence on the islands., which started in 1828 with the arrival of the first political and military commander of the islands by the government of Buenos Aires, Louis Vernet. Give an account of the extensive paths that were traveled to defend Argentine sovereignty over the islands, it is an objective for which culture and artistic creation are fundamental tools.

The setting of the Space will provide an ideal framework to complete the historical sense proposed by this story of the cacica María la Grande and the gaucho Antonio Rivero.

"Islas de Fuego" is a genuine attempt at a collective and popular story about the national and sovereignty. Presently puts these plots under a critical look around the situation of colonialism, that is perpetuated in our islands. The oratory recovers the history of the people who participated in the construction of the first national settlements, their regional identities, your ethnic or community affiliation, to relink the history of the Islands with the history of the Nation, to prevent it from being isolated as a foreign and independent chapter of the same.

Who were María la Grande and Antonio Rivero? The history books reveal them, respectively, as the first Tehuelche leader to set foot on the Malvinas Islands and the gaucho who led a revolt when the English usurped the Islands. Of the emblems of historical moments: that of the Argentine takeover of the Malvinas; and that of resistance to the arrival of the English in the archipelago.
