Directed by Julio Grinblatt, Ana Tiscornia: Cartografía del olvido (Cartography of Oblivion), 2022, features Uruguayan artist Ana Tiscornia in her studio as she creates work that acts as a vehicle between architecture and destruction.

270 is a series of short films created to preserve and amplify the rich contributions of Latin American artists. Each film is one artist’s homage to another, resulting in an intimate portrait of a single living artist whose work has shaped engagement with contemporary art.

The series title, 270, alludes to the concise length of the films, varying at brief vignettes of around 270 seconds or four and a half minutes. The resulting films capture facets of each artist’s life and creative journey, shining a light on the networks that have supported artistic production and celebrating the subjects’ contributions to our shared cultural histories.

The 270 film series was produced with creative direction from artist Julio Grinblatt and supported by the Institute for Studies on Latin American Art (ISLAA), New York.
