Linen backing is the industry standard of conservation. Canvas is stretchered and a sheet of acid free barrier paper is laid down. The poster is then pasted to the acid free paper using an acid free paste. This process is fully reversible and gives support to the poster. A border of linen is left around the poster and can be used by a framer to mount the poster so that nothing touches the poster itself. Backing is what we recommend for framing, and for any poster needing restoration.
Due to the flood of the river Salado, the Gaitáns, a poor family living in the North of Argentina, have lost their house. Forced to make multiple train rides in order to escape the rising waters, they discover the people of the hinterland. When they are back, they are given a new house by a politician seeking votes. The only trouble is that it is situated in area liable to - flooding.
