THREE PINK ART BOOKS RELEASED IN 2025

Antena by Silvia Gurfein, Huir del mundo by Rosa Chancho, and Important Artifacts by Leanne Shapton are three art books published in Spanish during 2025. All three have pink covers. But contrary to the saying, it’s not all roses in these books. Or perhaps it is, but not in an obvious way: they narrate and engage with art through themes of isolation, fragmentation, rupture, and imagination.

MATILDE MARÍN AND THE TRIMMINGS OF BEING A WITNESS ARTIST

Both the exhibited and the stored works draw attention in Matilde Marín’s studio. On the walls, her emblematic photographs steal the gaze, but so do the wrapped and labeled folders on her tables, the boxes full of books on the floor, and the stacks of files on her shelves. The image completes itself with her voice, the one that explains why the archive, too, is a protagonist.

THE HYPNOTIC NATURE OF AN EXPOSED STAGECRAFT

Just steps from the door, I heard the echoes of Tramoya. Curiosity guided my body toward the gallery, stealing from me the chance to prepare for the detours and fragmentations the works would provoke—and for the attempts to piece together those fragments within my own body.
