July 2008 – On the eve of the school holidays, carousel chairs hang empty in the once bustling Parque de la Ciudad, Buenos Aires. The amusement park, whose attractions included roller coasters and a giant tower, originally opened in 1982 as the city’s first large theme park, yet was closed in 2003 until last year after being deemed unsafe. Despite being opened again, its future is still in question and its rides stands idle.
As we continue our focus on art and design, we revisit Kate Stanworth's 2007 interview with Lucio Boschi about his black and white photographs of lesser-known cultures in Argentina.
