Within the exhibition Some Artists / 90 - TODAY, Alejandro Ikonicoff’s collection represents the latest production of Argentine art. He started collecting in the early years of the 2000s, following the model established by Gustavo Bruzzone, who formed his collection based on the close relationship with the artists of the 90′s. One of the artists who became very close to Ikonicoff is Gastón Pérsico, who made the selection of works for this exhibition along with Cecilia Szalkowicz.

Interviewed by Adriana Rosenberg, director of Fundación Proa, Ikonicoff and Pérsico make a review of the origin of the collection, the selection criteria of the works and the new modes and roles that have recently adopted both collectors and artists.
