Cecilia Vicuña – Saborami
Saborami is a response to the Chilean military coup of 1971 written at the distance of an exile. Born in Santiago in 1948, Vicuña had been involved in the Latin American avant-garde and a participant in the Chilean youth movement. The work combines Vicuña’s two major art practices: the sculptural precarios – ephemeral objects made from discarded found materials – and mythopoetic and performance texts. It has long been acknowledged by the artist as her pivotal artwork, containing outlines of later bodies of work. This new edition includes an introduction by Luke Roberts and Amy Tobin, and archival material documenting Vicuña’s contribution to the Chilean solidarity movement.
192 pages, 17 x 23 cm, softcover, Book Works (London).
