Synopsis "Hasta La Victoria, Stencil!"

BILINGUAL ENGLISH/SPANISH EDITION "The need to break on through and create interference in this world we're living in calls for action. It feels good to be here, now and for ever... Let's get out on the streets! To stencil, forever!" As if in response to these words by artist, DOMA, here is a veritable wealth of vibrant stencil art on Argentina's streets. The images are presented without text: the works are intricate, simple, beautiful, colorful, informative and funny. Hasta La Victoria, Stencil! is an exploration of all things stencil--from stencil art's first appearance in Argentina in 10,000 B.C., to the ways in which stencils are used today: as a reaction to a socio-political situation, as an art-form, as poetic terrorism and as a history lesson (after all, the book's title is adapted from Che Guevara's immortal words, "Hasta La Victoria, Siempre!"). It also provides detailed stencil instructions for readers ("Stick everything in a bag, wait till it gets dark and find a wall"). Quite appropriately, this highly topical book's cover features a die-cut title... Until Victory, Stencil! En pocos meses hemos asistido al redescubrimiento, popularización e institucionalización del stencil graffiti, una de las formas de intervención urbana más interesantes y actualmente la más popular y creativa de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires. Cooptado recientemente por la política partidaria, la universidad, la publicidad y el diseño gráfico corporativo, entendemos que la participación de este libro en ese proceso no deseado para un medio que se pretende contestatario y trasgresor, queda justificada por un doble intento: el de registrar una expresión popular extremadamente vulnerable a la desaparición "por blanqueo" y el de ser un llamado de atención, o convocatoria perceptual, sobre esas pequeñas señales que resultan sorpresivas para quien las ve e invisibles para la mayoría de los peatones. Léase este libro como un guiño para comenzar a sorprenderse. O a estampar.
