"First published in 1973, two months after the military coup in Chile, Cecilia Vicuña's Saborami is a document of the times and the way in which history can change art. It is filled with the urgent hope that art, too, can change history. Put together when Vicuña was just twenty-five years old, the poems, paintings, and objects of Saborami enact a complex and multidimensional conversation. The meanings of the works (which were created over a seven year period) shifted radically after the events of September 11, 1973. Their meanings continue to shift and resonate in light of political events today" -- WorldCat, accessed 10/11/2024.
"The first edition of Sabor A Mi was published by Beau Geste Press in Devon, England, in the fall of 1973, one or two months after the coup in Chile. The book was designed and printed in mimeograph and offset by the author with the support of Felipe Ehrenberg of Beau Geste Press, in an edition of 250 copies.
This edition is a partial facsimile of the original book and was published by Galería Patricia Ready in Santiago, Chile, May 2015" -- English translation of the inside of the back cover.
