Curator-led tour at 12 p.m. Opening speeches at 2 p.m. Photographs from the archives of the newspapers La Razón and Clarín trace four decades of Argentine political life, from Perón to the return of democracy. Press photographers recorded rallies, coups, and daily life as the country swung between competing powers, and their images show how ideology shapes what a nation sees of itself. Guest-curated by Inés Marseillan. With thanks to Timothy Pruss and the Archive of Modern Conflict.
