%0 Journal Article %T The Artist in/and Me Cr¨®nica %A Susana Ch¨¢vez-Silverman %J PORTAL : Journal of Multidisciplinary International Studies %D 2012 %I %X This cr¨®nica is an homage to a former love, Juan Mu oz Torregrosa, whom I knew in Madrid, when I was in high school. It is a very personal piece, written shortly after I¡¯d begun to access memories of my time with him, with the help of my sister Sarita. As I recount in the cr¨®nica, through my sister¡¯s cyber-sleuthing, we found out that Juan had become an internationally-renowned artist. Sadly, we also learnt of his untimely death in 2001. Thus, the only reconnection possible is the one I bring to life in these words, nourished by memory, eros, and imagination. %K Cronica %K chronicle %K Susana Chavez-Silverman %U http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/journals/index.php/portal/article/view/2513
