Hopscotch (Rayuela) is a journey through Buenos Aires as seen through the eyes of eighteen international and Argentine artists. This public exhibition borrows its name and concept from the 1963 experimental novel by Argentine writer Julio Cortázar and from the timeless children’s street game popular in many cultures. Like the nonlinear sequence of the book and game, the exhibition hopscotches through the city, offering numerous possible paths through three neighborhoods. The selected artists have realized artworks in close dialogue with their venues, shaping a multilayered experience that connects visual art, urban spaces, and the city’s histories in unexpected ways.
