PERIFÉRICOS

"When the economic crisis ocurred at the beginning of the 1990s, it was ilegal receive payments in the U.S. currency for the sale of artwork. This absurd restriction was one of the principal reasons for the stampede of the 80's generation, who sudendly found themselves with no utopia to believe in and no way to earn a living. The approval of sales in dollars sometime later is the basic reason why the artistic disapora has almost completely ended.

The strategy now is to not close any doors".
