The statement by the spokesperson for the government of Javier Milei, Manuel Adorni, generated a controversy since the official assured that the government of Alberto Fernández paid 2.6 million dollars for the insurance of the paintings exhibited at the Quinta de Olivos. However, in reality the sum was considerably less since it was 2.7 million pesos and not dollars.
Even Gabriel Cerruti, the former spokesperson for the Fernández government, also criticized Adorni.
“Spokesman Manuel Adorni today confused a figure in pesos with the same figure in dollars. The insurance on the works of art that must be paid at the Olivos residence as in any other museum or place of protection was two million seven hundred thousand PESOS ANNUALLY and it was already paid this year,” Cerruti clarified from his personal X account and attached a photo with the invoice for the insurance of the paintings belonging to Nación Seguros.
In the Presidential Fifth of Olivos, the government of Alberto Fernández and the previous one of Cristina Kirchner moved works by Argentine artists that were exhibited in collections of different museums. Both in those rooms and when they move to other places, the responsible and curators are obliged to safeguard the integrity of these pieces and, therefore, to take out insurance.
