Carlos Granés in conversation with Patricia del Río

From 'Salvajes' to 'rugido'

Arequipa 2025, 

With El rugido de nuestro tiempo, the Colombian essayist Carlos Granés continues his task of dissecting the present that he began in Salvajes de una nueva época. We live in a time of ideological and geopolitical disorder in which there are both decolonial debates and pan-Hispanic nostalgia; a time of messianic politicians and artists who sacrifice transgression to yield to the latest moral demands. To understand the noise of our times, there is nothing better than listening to Granés. In conversation with Patricia del Río.
