Rebecca Maria Ballestra, February 13, 2017
Barda del Desierto has selected 10 international artists from among two hundred nominations (Carmen Vicente - Peru; Celeste Rojas Mugica - Chile, Federico Gloriani - Argentina; Leo Ayres - Brazil; Natalí Tubenchlak - Brazil; Nina Bacun - Croatia, Rodrigo Alcon Quintanilha - Argentina, Brasil , Mauro Rosas y Fabián Urban - Argentina, Maria Rebecca Ballestra - Italy) who will spend the whole month of January 2017 in Contralmirante Cordero, in Patagonia.
