‘Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa: Requiem for Mirrors and Tigers’
Naufus Ramírez-Figueroa: Requiem for Mirrors and Tigers catalogues the trajectory of a cycle of performances of the same name, that the artist developed within the framework of Corpus, and through which he attempted to exhaust his interest in the Guatemalan Civil War as a recurring subject of his work.
Designed by Studio Manuel Raeder and published by If I Can’t Dance with Bom Dia Books, the publication documents the six performances in the cycle via foldout colour posters of each work, and an essay by Frédérique Bergholtz and Susan Gibb which offers descriptions of each performance alongside a reflection on the cycle as a whole.
The book is available for order here: ificantdance.org/publications.
