Nueva Cancion Poster 11x17", 2 color offset (1 oz) $4.00

(New Song) began in Argentina with a man caled Atahualpa Yupanqui whose guitar became its voice, and whose exile became its birth. It began in Chile where Violeta Parra gathered a life of songs and gave them all away.

It began as Victor Jara wrote songs to the rhythm of falling cannisters of tear gas, on the streets of Santiago.

Many of its voices died there, from Pinochet's bullets and from a world's silence. Yet still we hear Victor Jara, audible through the noise of the crowd, "walking, walking. I am the song remains unfinished..."
