In last months 2020, David Santaeulària, from Associació Binari, in Olot, invited me to design a limited edition for the collection of artists’s editions of the association.

My proposal was to make a poster for the performance Otro modo de hacer juegos de manos that I had been working with Alba Sanmartí. The poster is inspired by the visual elements with which the English illusionist Adelaide Herrmann (1853 – 1932), who also influenced the mentioned performance, announced her shows.

The poster goes with a rag that contains the rewriting of instructions found in the book Engaños a ojos vistas y diversión de trabajos mundanos fundada en lícitos juegos de manos,  by Pau Minguet i Irol, published in 1755, to make a hand game using the poster.
