The names of Feliza

Cartagena 2026, 

Juan Gabriel Vásquez will talk about his most recent book, Los nombres de Feliza, a recreation of the life of the sculptor Feliza Bursztyn, who was a freethinking artist who went beyond the limits set by the times for women like her. This rigorous novel weaves together art, history and memoir. He will talk to Juan Manuel Ruiz and Alexandra Vives.
