Online appointment system a for
Life Proof Certificates (remote)
| | |
The online appointment system allows citizens to schedule appointments for remote (non-presential) Life Proof Certificates, providing greater convenience for those who require this service without having to visit the Consulate in person.
As previously communicated, this system also remains available for consular services that require RENAPER’s intervention —specifically DNI and passport applications— and has become a key tool in streamlining access to these high-demand services, and will continue to be progressively expanded to incorporate additional consular procedures. The system is also accesible from our newly available virtual assistant, Tina, who will help you on visiting our updated website.
For DNI, passport, and Life Proof Certificates, Argentine citizens are reminded that appointments must be requested exclusively through our official website:
https://cnyor.cancilleria.gob.ar/es/turnos-online
Kindly note that, for security reasons, in person assistance will be provided by appointment only and visitors are requested to attend unaccompanied.
Given the high number of unattended appointments, we kindly remind citizens who have booked and confirmed a slot to arrive on the scheduled date and time. If unable to attend, we respectfully ask that you notify us in advance so the appointment may be reassigned, allowing us to better serve the community as a whole.

Through Layers
by Alexandra Arata
| | |
Through Layers is a solo exhibition by Argentine artist Alexandra Arata, exploring the dialogue between transparency and depth, fragility and strength. Her works, known for their airy textures and fluid forms, reveal the subtle power that emerges from what is not immediately seen, from the spaces between layers.
Through Layers is an invitation to pause and experience stillness within complexity. It celebrates the beauty of transparency as a symbol of honesty and vulnerability, and the strength found in the process of building, one layer at a time.
Mondays to Fridays - 10am to 1 pm & 2 - 4 pm

Lacuna: Remastered is a genre-defying performance piece in which a writer named C. descends into her own subconscious to recover the fragments of a life and an artistic process in pieces. Guided by Virgilia, a Commedia dell'arte trickster in the spirit of a 70s talk show host, and Memi, a cellist who wages a quiet war between music and memory, C. wanders through her own past as the audience decides which memories she revisits first.
Drawing on over 30 years of real archival footage, chalk-drawn timelines, and the circular logic of Dante's Inferno, the show asks: what does it mean to create when you can't remember who you are? Part circus, part nightmare, part love letter to the creative struggle, Lacuna: Remastered is theatre as excavation: messy, funny, and achingly alive.

| Pedro Giraudo Tango Quartet | |
The Pedro Giraudo Tango Quartet brings together world-class musicians to explore the rich tradition and contemporary possibilities of Argentine tango.
Led by bassist and composer Pedro Giraudo, the quartet approaches tango from a chamber music perspective — each musician a virtuoso in their own right, listening deeply and responding to one another with precision and spontaneity. Their repertoire spans traditional tango, nuevo tango, and original contemporary compositions, reflecting the full arc of a living, evolving art form. The result is a performance that is both deeply rooted in Argentina’s tango legacy and charged with a fresh, modern voice.
