About this book

In this book we have the possibility to dely into the process of an artist, focusing on her work but also on what remains on the outside and of what she will produce afterwards: from an exchange of emails with her astronomer cousin or the records of her notebook to the collection of images in which the sky has been represented in the history of art. Silvia Gurfein (Buenos Aires 1959) explores the magic of the universe through the iris of the human eye. Sobre Block. This collection allows us to know the processes of production and thought of contemporary Argentine artists. In each book an artist presents a thematic axis of research through sketches, annotations, images of works and writings. Thus these visual essays allow us to understand in the way of working of each of the authors letting us see the behind the scenes of their creation.ʺ (HKB Translation) --Colophon.
