We are extremely happy to be able to share this fantastic document with you, put together by our good friend Danny Zavaleta (contemporary artist from El Salvador), which tells the incredible story of Carlos Portillo… In it you’ll find a grand compilation of photographs, personal correspondence and even legal documents, which Portillo handed to Zavaleta himself.
