From this Friday the doors of the Manzana de las Luces Historic Complex will reopen to the public and it will be with the traveling exhibition "Lucía's room".

This exhibition arrives at the historic property located in the San Telmo neighborhood of Buenos Aires after having passed through Mar del Plata and proposes to reflect on the femicide of Lucía Pérez.

Made by Marta Montero and Claudia Acuña, This exhibition is also part of the cycle "Art against violence" and can be seen until 10 of September, Wednesday to Sunday (the hours of 12 a 19).

The installation was exhibited on the Rambla de Mar del Plata (2/2021) and at the Emilio Pettoruti Museum of Fine Arts in La Plata (4/2021), and from this Friday it will be in the Complex located in Peru 222, with a community debate around the crime of Lucia that still goes unpunished today.

“Lucia's Room” has various aesthetic devices: first, the presentation of the room. Many femicide surviving families agree that they have not touched their daughters' room since the day of the crime. Exhibiting that area is a way of sharing the grief, to ask for justice and to humanize what each femicide represents, that goes far beyond the “case” or the figure. On the other hand, they will be projected, on a tv, the oral trial that left the case unpunished and, on the very walls of the room, a short conceptual video that includes different cases of femicides and the respective mobilizations demanding justice.

The exhibition will be accompanied by a series of face-to-face and virtual workshops, more artistic-cultural activities with the intervention of actresses, as Alejandra Flechner, Lava Skin group and Valeria Lois, and music by Susy Shock and Karen Pastrana, among many other participations of artists.
