- Touched Bodies is the result of extensive archival research carried out in Mexico, Chile and Argentina over a period of six years. While based on my doctoral research, the book was thoroughly rewritten and expanded for publication. Most of the artworks and documentation under consideration remain unclassified in family archives and access to these sources was particularly challenging, involving considerable tracking and negotiation. Much of the material in this book appears in print for the first time. The monograph was shortlisted for the 2020 book prize of the Association for the Study of the Art of the Present (ASAP)
