Publication edited on the occasion of the exhibition “Eugenio Dittborn. Airmail Paintings”, the first solo show in Spain by Eugenio Dittborn (Santiago de Chile, 1943), one of the fundamental artists of Latin American conceptual art in the 1970s and 1980s. Airmail paintings are a hybrid between a letter and a painting. They have both an epistolary body and a pictorial body, so to speak. Eugenio Dittborn invented this format in 1983 in Santiago, Chile, following more than a decade of experimenting on different supports with extra-pictorial techniques through which he sought to challenge traditional easel painting. The book includes texts by the curator Patrick Hamilton, David Barro and Guy Brett, and a selection of images of the artworks and views of the exhibition.
