en San Telmo pasa . : : n a d a : : . Vintage, Nuevos Diseños y Arte, cómo es eso? nada. El Vintage es un movimiento que se está produciendo en esta época en Londres y en New York de manera independiente y sin apenas influencias mutuas, nutridas del arte pop de cada lugar. Todos sus componentes afirman su interés por la cultura urbana producida en masa: películas, ciencia ficción, música, el mundo de la imagen, la ropa y acessorios de indumentaria, los muebles y los nuevos diseños; hoy todo ello hace fusión en un nuevo multi-espacio en Buenos Aires en el barrio bohemio e histórico de San Telmo llamado . : : n a d a : : .

El grupo de artistas aqui reunidos termina por aplicar esta cultura. Con este movimiento la abstracción queda olvidada y se practica una figuración que se nutre de los medios de comunicación y de la producción masiva de artículos de consumo que parecián en desuso. Con distancia e ironía no fabrican, sino que hacen una adaptación y un comentario artistico sofisticado sobre algunos hechos de la cultura de masas y su figuración a través de objetos alli disponibles para la venta.
