With its entrance into the contemporary art circuit – its exhibitions, biennials, museums and educational institutions, history, aesthetics, market – photography has undergone an intense and evident transformation. From that image which only aspired to be a witness of reality, we have now moved towards constructed representations, distant or critical gazes, and the reproduction of the ordinary and banal. Realism and correspondence with the world have ceased to be the norm. Instead, the images pose a reflection about themselves; capture the resonances of previous representations; experiment with supports and devices; hold a dialogue with the multiplicity of photographic practices, from photo-journalism to advertising, from testimony to the family illustration. Without neglecting its aesthetic and technical explorations, contemporary photography also ventures into the searches of the sister visual arts; it accepts the challenge of inquiring into the current visual images, the media imaginary; the social, political and cultural negotiations of advanced capitalism. At the crossroads of all these interests and problems, photography is currently much more than a mere image: it is, above all, a motor of thought. Without overlooking its historical destiny of giving expression to the universe in which it is born, it projects itself towards the fields of reflection, cultural and social analysis, the dismantling of the modes of representation, the collective imaginary and the epochal identity. To some extent, the works selected for this edition of the Petrobras Award – Buenos Aires Photo, respond to this new perspective; hence their healthy diversity. In each and every one of them one may perceive a concern and a world, a context and an author's gaze, a space open for contemplation, analysis and thought. by Rodrigo Alonso Jury: Victoria Verlichak, Alicia de Arteaga, Elda Harrington, Rodrigo Alonso, Julio Sánchez WINNERS 1º PRIZE Hugo Aveta.
