Abstract: Book manufactured in the Mexican workshop of Consejo de la Cartonera, a cultural, social and communitarian project and the first in Mexico (2008). Each book is uniquely cut, paint and bound with recycled corrugated cardboard by young artisans of low income sectors designed to promote Latin-American contemporary literature. This edition is dedicated to Col-Artʺ(Arte Col), a coordinated art collective that started in Zurich, Switzerland, in 1968. For a few years was active in Paris, Berlin, New York, even in Mexico City, but in 1972 it disappeared from the art scene. In late 2005, it resurfaced as a major cultural movement, first in Tepoztlán and Mexico City, then in Germany, Spain and Switzerland. Artists Marc Kuhn and Rossana Duran are co-founders in this new epoch.
