Cubanos para llevar: Gastón Baquero [Cubans To-go]

Notes: 11 handmade sheets in a bag. Sheets measure 7-1/2 by 9-1/2 inches. Edition not stated, but ca. 100 copies.

The letterpress printed sheets are wrapped with a bellyband and are laid into a tie-dyed cotton bag (8-1/2 by 13 inches) with a wood grain design by Freddy García Azze of a tuKola (the island version of Coca-Cola) can with a candle. The image may reference periods of electricity shortages on the island.

Baquero, a native of Holguín, was closely associated with the Orígenes group of writers founded by José Lezama Lima. Following the revolution, Baquero lived in exile in Spain until his death in 1997.
