Abstract:
Between 2016 and 2018, photographer Pablo Ortiz Monasterio visited the city of Buenos Aires in Argentina three times. Observing how the "Me too" movement was gaining strength, not only in the United States, but also throughout Latin America, Ortiz Monasterio witnesses the latent and at the same time palpable power of the city's women. Women, he says, who stomp their feet and who, portrayed in this small book, represent the forcefulness of the affections that lead the feminist movements that fight and work for a more just future. This book begins with Eva, not with the first woman in history, but with Eva Perón, considered the spiritual head of the Argentine Nation. Pablo Ortiz Monasterio opens with a photo of a public building in the city of Buenos Aires in which a huge metal sculpture of Evita speaks to her people. It is fair that she'd be the first to appear in the book since she achieved something that seemed impossible: she gave Argentine women the right to vote. On September 23, 1947, Eva addressed the "women of her country", and in a mythical speech in Plaza de Mayo, announced the sanction of the Law of the Female Voting, a historic claim that demanded equal rights and opportunities for women
