Over a series of months, Corina Matamoros maintained a long conversation with the Cuban artist Rocio Garcia on her life and work, in order to understand her singular vision of reality. The result is a broad range of confessions that go from chosen subjects - mainly social, erotic and political - and the influence of comics on her narrative style of painting. As her storyboard paintings demonstrate, Garcia is a visual writer with an extraordinary technique. This volume includes her last works: El Thriller, Very, very Light and very oscuro. (Un policía con Alzheimer), El Castigador, El regreso de Jack el Castigador and The Mission. Text in English and Spanish. AUTHOR: Corina Matamoros has been curator at the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes of Havana, Cuba, for the Cuban contemporary art section since 1992.
