USPA NEWS - Argentine artists have shaped the global modern art scene through their innovative approaches, diverse styles, and provocative works that challenge the status quo and push the boundaries of artistic expression. Modern art in Argentina can be traced back to the early 1920s and 1930s when a group of avant-garde artists began to break away from traditional artistic convention and focused on new approaches. Artists such as Emilio Pettoruti and Xul Solar begun incorporating elements of Cubism, Surrealism, and Expressionism into their work and moved into the forefront of this movement, while such artists as Tomás Maldonado and Gyula Kosice started exploring the use of geometric shapes and abstract forms in their work during the 1940s and 1950s marking the emergence of the Concrete Art movement in Argentina. This period also saw the rise of the Informalist movement, which emphasized spontaneity and improvisation in the artistic process.

The gallery is a dynamic force in the Argentinian art scene, a hub for talent and inspiration. Some of Galeria Isabel Anchorena’s eye catching paintings are works of prominent Argentinian painter Miguel D’Arienzo and Eugenio Cuttica, artists who share Hoffmann's passion for abstract expressionism. Similar to Hoffmann, Cuttica's paintings also exude a sense of movement and vitality, his use of color and form creates a mesmerizing experience for the viewer. His work focuses on beauty as a concept, not as an intellectual construct, something that is simply happening, appealing to the idea that the artist is a vehicle of energy that passes by, a foreigner.
