Journalist Faride Zerán, Premio Nacional de Periodismo 2007presents a detailed biography of Carmen Waugh (b. Chile 1949), a woman that changed art inChile during the second half of the 20th century. Although mostly ignored, Carmen Waugh wasone of Chile's first art gallery owners and regarded as one who contributed the most to thehistory of 20th century visual arts in Chile. A woman of few words, great works, and a life ofvertigo, Carmen Waugh transited between Santiago (Chile) and Madrid after the Chilean coup,then in Rome with poet Juan Gelman, with whom she lived an intense relationship, and then toNicaragua during the Sandinista revolution. Before all this she had a friendship-love relationshipwith author Julio Cortázar. In the meantime, this determined woman, despite all theobstacles, was giving away along with the mythical Payita (Miria Contreras, widow of Allende)"the most relevant collection of contemporary art in Latin America to create the Museum ofSolidarity Salvador Allende".
