With an introductory text by the prestigious curator Rodrigo Alonso and edited by Carla Rey, the book stands out for the presence of acrostics (who are the artist's imprint) and for including an insert in Braille (inspired by the participation that the artist had in the Museo del Ojo de Córdoba) with the biography of the artist and with a crossword puzzle that contains the years and the names in which each of the series were made. The book-catalog is a journey through different works, techniques and languages of Carmen Buteler's (Córdoba, Argentina 1952) artistic production throughout her career, leaving aside any chronological order. Carmen Butelerœ production is the result of permanent work, research and curiosity. From her first steps in the textile universe to her current plastic creations, a surprising transformation is perceived; however, there are images, ideas and sensibilities that remain as a formal and conceptual substrate that gives cohesion to the whole. I work with different techniques and themes says the artist but I am the same person'. Indeed, there is something in her way of looking at the world and translating it into visual language that works like the thread that interweaves her total production, giving it a unique cohesion.ʺ --Page 16.
