Manuel Mujica-Láinez (1910-84) was born and died in Buenos Aires. He wrote more than twenty books (novels, stories, biographies, poems, travel chronicles, and essays), among which are worth mentioning: Misteriosa Buenos Aires [Mysterious Buenos Aires], Los ídolos [The Idols], La casa [The Home], Invitados en el paraíso [Guests in Paradise], Bomarzo, El unicornio [The Unicorn], El viaje de los siete demonios [The Seven Imps Voyage], El brazalete [The Bracelet],and El escarabajo [The Beetle]. On the other hand, as an art critic, he was linked to important galleries: Witcomb and Bonino, among them. He also held several official posts, such as general director of cultural relations of the MREC, the Argentinean Foreign Office. For the first three years after it opened in 1960, Derbecq herself was consulting for the Galería Lirolay, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Fano, a French couple of Jewish birth. Because young artists were being selected and promoted there every two weeks, the gallery developed a name for spotting new forms of artistic expression, opening its space to many budding artists who held their first solo shows within those walls. This document explores emerging visual arts of the period, the ones that had not yet been swept into the institutional circuit in Argentina. On this occasion, the subject is the first solo exhibition for Jorge Marcio Gentilini, a young twenty-three-year-old artist, painter and ceramist. He was one of the students of Clorindo Testa at the Faculty of Architecture.
