¿Quién puede borrar las huellas?
Regina José Galindo. ¿Quién puede borrar las huellas?, 2003–2003.
Description:
Who can erase these prints was made in 2003, during which Galindo walked from Guatemala’s building of Congress to the National Palace, dipping her bare feet at intervals in a white recipient full of human blood. This work is a vigorous protest against the presidential candidacy of Guatemala’s former dictator José Efraín Ríos.
