About
Isla Flotante started as an artist runspace during 2012. It was a mix of artist ateliers and exhibition space. Once a month we gave out a party so it was also a important place of meeting and socialisation. Throughout the years it became a medular point of Buenos Aires art scene. Over the next years the presence of the gallery at international art fairs contributed to the exponential growth of the project.
The very core of the project is still intact: the young avant garde spirit and the belief on the importance of working with young artists which are showing concerns on an agenda that the gallery itself as a whole organic body feels the need to underline: self criticism of the art world's strategies of legitimation, power and circulation, problems of gender and identity.
