Barrytown/StationHill Publishing

A bilingual collection of essays in Spanish and English about the art and life of Argentinean-born artist Raquel Rabinovich published in conjunction with “River Library,” an exhibition of her recent work at the Fundación Alon in Buenos Aires. The book includes contributions by Julia P. Herzberg, Patricia C. Phillips, Jenny Fox, and Ana María Battistozzi. While the essays focus on Rabinovich’s recent “River Library” drawings made with mud collected from rivers around the world, and her “Emergences”sculpture installations situated along the banks of the Hudson River, they also trace and affirm her life-long artistic journey as a process of going into the dark in order to see, and into the unknown in order to know.

Richly illustrated with color photos.

Published in 2008 by the Fundación Alon in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and distributed in the United States in partnership with Barrytown/Station Hill Press.
