CRUDO is an artist-run art gallery located in Rosario, Argentina. It was founded in 2014 as a space for training, residencies, exhibitions and experimentation, where the construction of aesthetic and affective networks took precedence. In 2018, it became an art gallery, consolidating a staff of artists, annual programming and participation in national and international fairs. As in its beginnings, CRUDO continues to be a meeting space, with a strong commitment to strengthening the Argentine art market, constantly working on circulation strategies, gallery management, attracting audiences, and building circuits, from a decentralized perspective.

Hernán Camoletto begins to draw on a notebook called “Copiador” (Copybook) that was used to generate replicas of documentation by hand. Through its pages he begins to “copy” and interpret, through error, whim and superposition, vases from the history of art. On its transparent pages, Camoletto “copies” vases from the history of art through error, whim and superposition.
Nicole Mazza explores female identity and stereotypes through her textile collages. Her distorted, grotesque and fragmented figures question the external perception and internal reality of women.
Yuyo Gardiol with “Paisaje Cercano” explores the relationship between skin and environment, creating colorful abstractions that evoke an atmosphere of intimacy and mystery. It is based on the idea that people are so permeable to the environment that even the skin can change color.
