Lotty Rosenfeld Una milla de cruces sobre el pavimento / A mile of crosses on the pavement, 1979 6 vintage photographs, signature and stamp 59 x 89 cm Lotty Rosenfeld’s work, indispensable for a proper understanding of Latin American art over the last four decades but also for global art practices engaging with political issues, engaging with memory, adds a new individual and joint reading on her work. A challenging refreshing dialog which is a mix between her past and present practice; it is an exciting, committed and novel proposal. Her aesthetic approach can be found in the interest for the sociopolitical events that take place in one’s surrounding environs, and her subsequent unfolding towards new terrains. Lotty Rosenfeld turns her gesture into a weapon to fight against the loss of memory of political repression and one of the darkest moments in Chile from the dictatorship to the present.
