Download or read book Rebozos written by Carmen Tafolla and published by Wings Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrating both the rebozo as a cultural icon of Mexico and the series of rebozo-inspired paintings by Mexican-California artist Catalina Garate, this bilingual collection of poems gives voices of strength, endurance, joy, and sorrow to the women of Garate's paintings. The rebozo is considered a physical manifestation of Mexican womanhood throughout every stage of life and can be used as a tool of daily labor: a sling to carry children, a shield from weather or from prying eyes, an heirloom, and even a shroud. Inspired by each painting, these poems, in both Spanish and English, are accompanied by a historical explanation of the role of the rebozo in Mexican history, art, and culture.
