In his book Hugo Houayek addresses poetically the possibilities and power of contemporary painting. Understanding painting as border act, confronting us with its implicit frontality, the book discusses how the pictorial field is continuous and ongoing negotiations with the world to be defined. Consequently to enlarge its territory painting must confront the world and this confrontation perceived as falling, paint diluted in the world. With this behavior painting assumes the behavior of a language with all its imperfections, impossibilities and failures.
