Guillermo Faivovich (Buenos Aires, 1977) is a research artist. For nearly two decades, alongside Nicolás Goldberg, he has been developing a polymathic exploration of Campo del Cielo, a border region in northern Argentina that has been showered by meteorites during the Holocene. His practice blurs the boundaries between visual arts, historiography, bureaucracy, and civic-astronomical detective work, challenging the limits of epistemic construction around a single object. Some of his notable projects include Otumpa (Museum of Modern Art of Buenos Aires, 2023); Mesón de Fierro: Towards the XXII Century (United Nations, Vienna, 2019); Decomiso (ASU Art Museum, Arizona, 2018); numero (XI Gwangju Biennale, Korea, 2016); the weight of uncertainty (documenta 13, Kassel, 2012); Meteorit “El Taco” (Portikus, Frankfurt, 2010); and Retrato de La Sorpresa y los meteoritos que ya no están en Campo del Cielo (Piguem N’ Onaxá Provincial Park, Chaco, 2006).
