Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to examine the concepts of migration, memory and tikkun olam (fixing of the world) in the work of the argentine artist Mirta Kupferminc, in the context of the Argentine-Jewish culture.These concepts are identified as the pillars that support the artist’s work and draw on multiple and complimentary identities. Through the study of the ideas of migration, memory and tikkun olam asexpressed in M. Kupferminc’s works it is possible to express how the national (Argentine) identity and the Jewishness interact on the canvases, taking advantage of the simultaneity and multiplicity facilitated by the visual medium.
