"We are, as we publish this book, in the midst of a pandemic with unpredictable endings. It is once again a human fabrication product of the lack of respect for the world and its inhabitants. When it is over, the effects will make us rethink the problem of how to carry a baggage that history condemned as being ethically unacceptable, how much memory is kept and how much is rewritten to improve the future. One position is that memory is untouchable, you have to keep the visual part with the traces and their monuments because it describes the criminals with their environment, that serves as a warning. The other is to erase as much as possible, to do a cleaning in order to build a future crystalline empty of interference. The questions are still present today because autocracies are once again lurking. This time not locally but globally and in response to a simple virus. It is a virus that surpasses the old ideologies and that will accentuate all the problems over which the ideologies had faced. The art of demolishing? De Graciela de Olivares is a diary of activities that deals with these questions, of how the step works in the present. Objectively narrates the opinions and data accumulated during the Demolition/Construction project. By discussing the effects of memories-evaluating what things are kept, what things are demolished, what is constructed-he also keeps them alive." (HKB Translation) --Verso Cover.
