Monica, the erotic fanzine
This is our daughter, Monica. She’s named Monica after her two grandmothers—our mothers—Mónica Lilienfeld and Mónica Pezdirc. This coincidence has intrigued us ever since we began our relationship, because it goes further: both Monicas were born in Argentina in the 1950s; both were daughters of European refugees; both eventually emigrated to Spain; and both were image-makers.
Mónica Lilienfeld was a painter who died very young. In her oil paintings she portrayed herself, merging her body with her dreams and fears. Mónica Pezdirc posed nude in hundreds of erotic photographs taken by her husband on the nudist beaches of Galicia.
In their canvases and photographs, thousands of Monicas appear. These thousand Monicas have mothered us, have inspired us, taught us... These Monicas have given form to us so that now we can give form to her, Monica.
Nuestra queridísima Mónica. Monica is our daughter, our non-human daughter. She is a stage piece that we present here in the form of a fanzine. A fanzine full of eroticism and desire, meant to reflect not so much on what an image is, but on what an image can do: inspire, teach, show, arouse.
