In addition, a great milestone of the fair was the Auditorium 2023 cycle, with talks, interviews and presentations of artists' books, bringing together important references in Latin American photography. These meetings established a journey between the history and future of photography, with dialogues about artificial intelligence, collecting and the country's visual memory. The tribute to Boleslaw Senderowicz was presented and books by various photographers were shared with the public.
