The Chilean poet Pablo Neruda and author created his work »20 Poemas de Amor y una Canción Deseperada« as a tribute to love.

Dedicating itself to the same issue, this artist ´s book contains 11 digitized, large formated paintings on the subject of love which were presented simultaneously in an art exposition. Various experimental and expressive typo­graphys were developed.

Inanimate materials such as mayonnaise, ketchup, coffee, tea were used experimentally in the potato and linocut print. The illustrations and the resulting typography in conjunction with the use of individual materials result in an additional emotional appeal of the reader, and thus provide an ideal basis for the extraordinary poetry of Neruda.
