Imagine that a president receives a delegation of foreign leaders but does not do it at the government house, but rather at the best hotel in the city. Bizarre because … what are you talking about that? What is the upholstery of the official chairs? That his place is not up to par?
Suppose it is viewed in the environment and no one knows anything – nobody says anything about the election, but some officials, as a personal badumption, escape the word "security." What do you say? A private area can guarantee what an audience can not?
Let us now leave the hypothesis: at the time of the G20, Juliana Awada, wife of the president of the Mauricio Macri nation, will lead what is called the "program of accompaniment", that is to say the marches of the couples of presidents, who have the chance to take their loves on work trips. On Friday, they will visit Villa Ocampo, the house where Victoria Ocampo He has hosted great personalities of the world culture. From your magazine, SouthOcampo translated and published the ideas of the time. Fearing that Peronism would confiscate it, he donated it to UNESCO, which did not always want it well. But that's another story: the house is a symbol of Argentine intellectual cosmopolitanism but also ideas of a course on Peronism. He has his charge Villa Ocampo and that was wanted. Because for the mansions there were options, not so far: why not the Pueyrredón Museum, beautiful and public, in San Isidro?

On Saturday, the "escorts" will go to see art in a museum. Which? At the National Museum of Fine Arts? Nop. They go to Malba, a beautiful building with a nice collection, no doubt. The Malba is, as its name indicates, a museum of Latin American art and part of the collection of Eduardo Costantini, the businessman who is president and majority partner of Nordelta and that these days have sounded in the networks after stating that hard "many of us stop being billionaires"The companions – almost all women – will see a museum run by its own owner: the guide will be in charge of Costantini himself.

Malba has an amazing collection, which includes works such as Abaporu, part of the artistic history of Brazil, borrowed at the time by Dilma Rousseff – then president. You will see works by Mexican Diego Rivera, Argentinian Antonio Berni, Brazilian Candido Portinari, Mexican (and worldwide) Frida Kahlo, Julio Le Parc, Alicia Penalba: his sample permanent is spectacular and a good friend. I would advise all presidents (and everyone in general) to see it. But … official visit?
Some officials speak of "security". For the state, Malba is safer than the fine arts … who is national?
A source close to the decision stated that "in addition to the profile of the museum's collection (Argentine and Latin American) and the relevance of the works, the architecture, access, the availability of the auditorium and restaurant facilities for lunch in the museum were appreciated ". After the visit, is there a lunch of three chefs? The museum and the restaurant, all together, were hard to find. And that seems to have weighed.
The Return of Malón, by Angel Della Valle, Heritage of the National Museum of Fine Arts.
How do you read the fact that the presidency has not found any public art exhibition where to bring your guests? The state does not compete – it should not – the private sector in representation: only the state is the state and represents us all. The National Museum of Fine Arts is the product of what has been collected and produced in Argentina over two centuries. As we are an immigrant country, the beautiful Arts There is a lot of European work that may not interest visitors, but is not that how this country was formed, the one they are supposed to know about? And step by step … it will be a pity if they are with these images that tell our story, as The return of the malón, from Angel Della Valle, as the hard Without bread and without work, by Eduardo Sívori, as The cashieror of Antonio Berni? What do they see the moving story of the war with Paraguay by Cándido López? And, of course, our twentieth century, with its colors and tears.

Some people think that in the organization, they were afraid of a union event. Others say it would be impossible – almost all staff are fired – or an admission of helplessness.
An official visit that escapes the institutions of the state, pity, and opens the game to many interpretations of its place in the ideology of the ruling party.
Anyway, you can enjoy the visit to Malba: a tip, take out a few steps of the guided tour and attend the temporary show of Pablo Suárez. There, standing in front of the huge Exclusion, this guy with the hair of speed, hanging on the train. And then, have a good lunch.
