Rosângela Rennó: Rio-Montevideo
Intriguing installation at the Photographers’ Gallery by Rosângela Rennó using images taken by Aurelio Gonzalez for the Uruguayan Communist newspaper El Popular which were hidden in anticipation of a military coup and only found 30 years later. The installation consisted of a series of vintage projectors which you walked around, pressing a red button on each to get it to project one of the images on the white walls. It gave a real sense of walking amongst the images and having some control over them. I didn’t however get any real sense of what the images were of and about. It became more about the projectors than the images but I did think this was a really innovate way of producing a show. Closes on 3 April 2016
