- Summary:
- José Luis Landet's artistic production can be approached by using the verb "to manifest" and its different meanings: on one hand, "to manifest" can be understood as a protest act, collective and public, in which the bodies gather to demand something; on the other, it may refer to reveal or show something, to display what was lying underneath. It is right at the intersection between politics and view that Landet's manifested landscapes emerge. Throughout his career, José Luis Landet has worked with discarded, recovered and appropriated archives. From there, he extracts photographs, writings, slides, drawings and letters, which become an essential -tangible and conceptual- part of his creations. Oil paintings of bucolic landscapes have received special attention within his aesthetic project: by taking them into account, he imbues them with a renewed power, which radiates historical, affective and political specters. The present publication is a compendium of nine facsimiles edited, yet not printed, by the artist Carlos Gómez (Argentina, 1945 - 2014). Carlos Gómez was an unknown, cryptic author; and in the last years artist José Luis Landet (Argentina, 1977) has endeavored to spread and reconstruct his work. In this book, Landet -in a partnership with EMA Publications- has reinterpreted the sketches and cuts from the original fanzines of Gómez. Also gathered here are unpublished texts about the life and work of Carlos Gómez, about the exhibitions that Landet has made from his work, plus an interview done by the publisher to José Luis Landet with the intention of better understanding of the value of this publication.
