- Abstract
This article deals with a series of interventions carried out by the Argentine artist Leandro Katz at the beginning of the seventies, within the framework of actions and exhibitions promoted by the Center for Art and Communication of Buenos Aires (CAyC), an interdisciplinary space that promoted experimental practices and theoretical production around Latin American art and which carried out an exhibition policy articulated around the creation of a network of links between alternative institutions, artists and theorists. Since the mid-sixties, Katz has been working outside the territory and inserted in the New York scene, marked by an anti-institutional and alternative attitude, among the artists associated with conceptualisms. We will focus on a series of performative interventions that Katz carried out in 1972 in Buenos Aires, an unsolicited contribution to the III Coltejer Biennial of Medellín (1972) and his participation in various groups of artists that brought him closer to the debates around the boycott of the XI Biennial of Sao Paulo (1971). This article intends to review some of the exchange actions promoted or accompanied by the CAyC, in which Leandro Katz participated, as well as an approach to the prolific and little-known early career of Katz.
