Summary
The intention of this anthology is to contribute to the knowledge of one of the major debates produced in the history of contemporary art in Argentina, generated by the work of one of the more extraordinary of artists. The texts and documents compiled here constitute a material of invaluable consultation for the study of the relations between art, censorship and democracy. This book is based, essentially, in the unpublished character of the events related to the major retrospective of artist Leon Ferrari in 2005 (catalogue 2006). During the forty days that the retrospective was open to the public, it summoned 70,000 spectators; it generated immense lines to enter the room; it was crossed by lawyers and judges; it brought about the multitude of demands for the destruction of his work and demonstrations in his support; it gave rise to almost 1,000 articles of press; it received messages of support and repudiation; one petition in his defense had 2,800 signatures; it was necessary to extend the schedule of exhibition until past midnight; the exhibition was closed by one court and opened again by another. Essential reference on art and censorship in the 21st century.
