Ryts Monet shows for the first time in Argentina

The Italian Cultural Institute of Buenos Aires has announced that Italian artist Ryts Monet will make his first appearance in Argentina as part of Bienalsur 2023, presenting his evocative work World Map (about sustainable fashion). The piece is featured in the group exhibition Rompecabezas (Puzzle), curated by Diana B. Wechsler and Benedetta Casini.

World Map critically examines the economic and political disparities in environmental relations. According to the press release, Ryts Monet "chose to depict the world map through a process of subtraction, wearing down and distressing a denim textile base to create the image of an exhausted Earth, now reduced to tatters." The work "aims to provoke questions about the impact of hyper-consumerist markets and large-scale resource extraction—both now and in the future—on local and global scales."

The piece was first exhibited at the Fondazione Pistoletto Cittadellarte in Biella, Italy, and was created during Circulart 2, an artist residency program organized by the foundation, focusing on fashion and sustainability.

The exhibition—supported by the Embassy of Italy, Fondazione Pistoletto Cittadellarte, and Officina+39—will open on July 29 at the Muntref Centro de Arte Contemporáneo y Museo de la Inmigración, located in Buenos Aires’ historic Hotel de Inmigrantes.

The exhibition will be on display at the Kaunas City Museum and the Meno parkas Gallery from 12 September to 9 November 2025. It offers a stimulating dialogue between Italian artists — such as the Atelier dell'Errore collective, Arnold Holzknecht (Val Gardena, 1960) and Ruth Beraha (Milan, 1986) — and Lithuanian artists, including Aistė Ambrazevičiūtė, Andrius Arutiunian and Maximilian Oprishka.
The exhibition explores the complex relationship between nature, myth, technology and human intervention, inviting viewers to reflect on ecological processes, human stories and possible futures. The selected works offer new perspectives on the world, questioning the anthropocentric view and revealing the tension between beauty, instability and mystery.
The project is part of a broader two-year programme (2025-2026) dedicated to cultural exchange between Italy and Lithuania, aimed at promoting the artistic talents of both countries. The collaboration will conclude in 2026, when three Lithuanian artists will be guests at the 10th Gherdëina Biennale in Val Gardena (BZ), from 29 May to 13 September.
Atelier dell'Errore (AdE) is an artistic collective based in Reggio Emilia, dedicated to the visual and performing arts. Founded in 2015 by artist Luca Santiago Mora, the group now consists of 11 young neurodivergent artists.
