Abstract

After four years, the Fotogalería at Teatro San Martin reopened in 2018 under the direction of three curators. This text proposes an analysis of the three exhibitions that year. The first had works by two artists exploring conventional forms of photography; the second, a solo show, displayed, once again, a reflection on genres; and the third embraced questions on exhibition spaces, photographic ones in particular. My view is that they conform a trilogy about social uses, genres and exhibition spaces exploiting circularity between the Fotogalería, its history and the pictures, and that they allow an approach on the universes of meanings that photography have or may have (including the exhibition space).
