La Plata (Buenos Aires, Argentina) suffered on April 2, 2013 its worst flood. During and after the disaster, forms of solidarity and social practices, including artistic ones, were deployed. As a result of the disaster, a local visual arts scene was created after the flood -of artistic and textual production and generation of social relations. Thus, there were multiple interventions, both in institutional spaces and in the public space, which related the flooding from different artistic formats. They also generated a disruption in space, building other possible accounts of what happened and questioning its causes and consequences. We will give an account of this scene from a qualitative and transdisciplinary methodology, which implies a complex view of the relationship between the social political process and artistic productions.

Palabras clave : La Plata; flood; visual arts scene; institutional space; public space.
