Photograph accompanying the article "Prueban una vacuna local contra el cancer" in La Nación, Buenos Aires, Tuesday 19 February 2008, p. 12
In February, the newspaper La Nación runs a cover story about a national campaign against cancer. On the inside pages, where the article continues, it is illustrated by a photograph of the sculpture The Little Truck from Dock Sud. The photo focuses on the Reaper cutting a man’s head. The work belongs to Dr. Hugo Sigman, the owner of the Elea laboratory – one of the institutes that funds the development of a vaccine against cancer – who can be seen standing next to other researchers who work in the Project.
In May the work The Struggle turn up in one of the Banco Ciudad auctions; it had been acquired by the Banco de Boston in 1970, and had not been seen for a long time. The piece is shown by several graphic media on this occasion.
The black-resin version of Procedure is exhibited alongside the Costantini collection at the Malba, on loan from another private collection.
Between 3 and 27 July, the exhibition called La gráfica en el Di Tella (Artwork at the Di Tella institute) runs at the Centro Cultural
