| description | This text addresses experiences of Latin American cardboard publishers as collective artistic practices, engaged in the production and circulation of books at affordable prices, in the promotion of visual creation spaces open to the communities in which they develop their practices and to give visibility to creators who otherwise would not have access, not only as consumers but as cultural producers. Cartonera publishers arise in Latin America, the first experience was that of Eloísa Cartonera in Buenos Aires, founded in 2003 by Washington Cucurto and Javier Barilaro, which assumed the format of a cooperative, and spread to other Latin American, European and African countries assuming different formats. This work aims to report on the development and results of an investigation carried out between 2016 and 2017, using as a grounded theory as its methodological framework based on interviews, documentary analysis and recovery of images published on social networks. This research collects the voices of five cardboard publishers, from interviews and the voices of other seven publishers from the study of their manifestos. This made it possible to reveal their forms of organization, the decision‐making process, the place of visual creation and the ways of creating community. The conclusions revealed a series of diverse practices that fell under the name of cartoneras and that were halfway between creation and activism. |
