Notes related to Books

By María Galarza

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.
