DESCRIPTION
A prominent Chilean artist known for his 'Airmail Paintings' (Pinturas Aeropostales), which he began in 1984 as a strategy to bypass censorship and isolation under the Pinochet regime. These works are folded into envelopes and mailed to their exhibition sites, with their transit becoming part of the work's history.
