I visited Villa Ocampo with Christian. It's unfortunate that it's not open to the public yet. You may want to contact the UNESCO people directly and schedule a private tour. I too recommend "Caras y Caretas". Excellent writing, research and lay out. I just bought the latest issue as its main theme is related to my field of work: "Como recuperar la educacion que hizo grande a la Argentina". The issue also includes an interesting article on the little discussed abortion question in Argentina. Jeff,

I'll read about it. Christian - Villa Ocampo is a place I look forward to visiting. It has been on our list of places to visit but I've not made it there yet. It's a shame about the building preservation problems there. Ocampo seems to have been a fascinating person. Does anyone know which intellectual magazines in Spanish are important today, particularly those published in Argentina? What magazines do intelligent people in Buenos Aires read today? Paterna – thanks for the info on “Caras y Caretas”. I’ll read about it.

I toured the house back in April and it was very impressive. Unfortunately, there was a series of controversies regarding her will and the ownership of the house when she died, and it quickly fell into repair. Then there was a fire a couple of years ago. The estate was still under renovation when I was there, and it should be open to the public soon. Many of her possession, books, furniture, pictures, etc. are all there. A fascinating place reflecting a dynamic woman. www.villaocampo.org If you have time, a visit to Victoria Ocampo’s house in San Isidro, Villa Ocampo, is well worth your time.

"Nosotros" was published also in the 70´s and begining of the 80`s but quite different from it´s begining. In the finnals was a magazine with news from celebrities and nudes. More interesting it´s the history of "Caras y Caretas" that it´s been published again. Well... see you soon... maybe in the streets.
