El Flasherito (Argentina) will use the Grant to produce its first book-format publication, gathering 10 years as a collective and independent art journal that has already published 21 print editions and nearly 500 online articles. El Flasherito serves as both a platform to amplify the actions of its scene and a living archive of recent years.
El Flasherito diario is an independent contemporary art and related publications founded by Argentine artists Andrés Aizicovich, Leo Estol, and Liv Schulman. It is recognized as a space for reflection and writing among peers, and for the past ten years, it has covered numerous exhibitions, books, performances, and expressions that do not always receive coverage from major media outlets. The platform rethinks the role of writing and criticism, expanding its scope, considering writing as an artistic gesture rather than a literary genre. El Flasherito’s work revolves around an urgent need to make visible the social function of writing—a daily journal that advocates for a living form of criticism, capable of making bold connections, investigating, asking questions, and making mistakes. It is conceived as a structure capable of moving freely across the borders of writing without a passport, navigating criticism as a creative platform, fiction, whimsy, judgment, and looseness.
