She asked directions for getting lost

<p>This first monograph of Manuela Ribadeneira’s work departs from her collaboration with Artes no Decorativas S.A. in Ecuador in the 1990s and goes up to her current practice as artist, publisher, and organizer in London and Quito. It brings together new essays by Catalina Lozano, Florencia Portocarrero; a hypnotic induction by Marcos Lutyens; a personal reflection by Pablo Lafuente; an interview with Rodolfo Kronfle; and a translation of a text by Virginia Pérez-Ratton. As editor, Rivet (Sarah Demeuse and Manuela Moscoso) became an active interlocutor, which translates into their presence as commentator and guide to the reader. Manuela Ribadeneira’s own voice appears in semi-hypnotic narrative entries reflecting on her practice as well as her deep experience of geographic and emotional place.</p> <p><em>This PDF is a Spanish translation of the texts inluded in the printed book.</em></p>
