About this product

Product Information

Argentine creators Diego Arandojo (writer) and Facundo Percio (artist) come together to celebrate a time in Argentine history when its art scene blossomed.The core of this book is the poetry collective Opium, formed by the writers mariani, Sergio Mulet, Isidoro Laufer and Ruy Rodr??guez. Other featured artists include Jorge Luis Borges, writer; Juan Ioannis Andralis, typographer, poet, painter, and publisher; Juan-Jacobo Bajarlia, writer; Antonio Berni, painter; Marta Esviza, actor; Marcelo Fox, writer; Allen Ginsberg; Ithacar Jal??, painter; Iaroslav Iaros Kosak, photographer; Alberto Laiseca, writer; Yoel Novoa, actor; Federico Peralta Ramos, conceptual artist; M??ximo Simpson, poet; Lino Enea Spilimbergo, painter, and Hugo Tabachnik, poet. Arandojo's staccato dialogue lends a poetic quality to these lively, often mysterious characters, while Percio's raw and expressive charcoal drawings perfectly capture the rough charm of this eclectic community of artists and the seedy, smoky locales they inhabit. Romantic, dangerous, and brimming with life -- Buenos Aires in the time of the beatnik.
