For years, visual artist and photographer Gaby Messina portrayed and conversed with over a hundred Argentine painters, sculptors, photographers, and performers of international renown, all aged over 65 and in the full maturity of their personal and creative lives. Their reflections, ideas, and feelings translate into unique moments. Stripped of any solemnity and pretension, their words help to understand much more than their works: they speak of life and work, love and time, inspiration and effort, partnership, children, friendship, loneliness, and death. In the paragraphs of this book, the lights and shadows that each artist encounters in their work, life, and the world they inhabit shine with sensitivity and lucidity.
