Buenosairean museums intervene some of their works by the use of chinstrap
The Museums of the City of Buenos Aires joined the awareness campaign about care in times of coronavirus and carried out a proposal that consists of the intervention of some works of art and photos of their heritage collections, where the use of chinstrap or face mask is recommended.
Among the pieces of this campaign is Niní Marshall, Carlos Gardel, Patoruzito, Isidore, Archduke Ernesto of Austria and Widows and Daughters of Roque Enroll with a chinstrap. The works can be seen in the Instagram accounts of each museum and those of @bamuseos and @buenosaires. On the other hand, each venue invites to interact with the public, that you can give a title to each work.
In that context, every week the BA Museums launch different digital cycles with various activities on their social networks and in turn invite the public to reverse works with objects found at home, offering weekly challenges, fun facts, behind the scenes of museum workers, trivia, educational videos and virtual tours. It should be added that these proposals are also included in the Culture at Home platform.
