This substantial volume recaptures the figure of an artist who was a catalyst for radical, \u2018In a country experiencing tensions at every step in its history, Maresca\u2019s work garners
collective experiences in the years after the last military dictatorship in Argentina. Liliana
Maresca\u2019s awareness of the artist\u2019s place in society gave her work a revelatory power that
hugely impacted an artistic community committed to searching for new ways of communicating
and establishing social bonds. This publication on the life and work of an utterly unique artist
is the result of special research by the Museo de Arte Moderno de Buenos Aires, which was the
springboard for the 2017 exhibition The Keen Eye: Works 1982\u20131994<\/em>. It includes an in-depth
essay by Javier Villa, a text by Mar\u00eda Gainza, a chronology by Laura Hakel and a significant
body of previously unpublished images of works and documentary material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
particular significance. For, while she experimentally explored the meaning of the image,
creation, and the artistic object, Maresca developed an interest in discourse, eloquence, and
the situation of enunciation. The work was just as important as the social and discursive
situation of the artist conveying a state of the world and a vision of the future. Maresca\u2019s
awareness of the artist\u2019s place in society gave her a fundamental relevance that had a huge
impact on her own artistic community, which, in the mid-1980s, was experimenting with new
ways of saying and creating art and community. \u2019
