New book "I have dreamed of you so much FREEDOM" by Beatriz Iriart, poems dedicated to the victims of the Holocaust, June 2025, on Amazon

 

 

WANTING

        To the survivors of the Holocaust

I have dreamed of you so much
in these days
of stew and bread.
I have dreamed of you so much
with the frost and the famine
with the chains lacerating the ankles
with the terror
installed in the hut.
I have dreamed of you so much
FREEDOM.


“Dear Beatriz, your texts are very touching and truly poetic about a subject which is not easy to write about. And it is not only a Jewish pain but also a human tragedy.” Eliahu Toker, argentine poet, Buenos Aires, 2001.

"Your poetic work, your examination of these ghostly mistakes of humanity, commits us to be alert to the personal and collective processes through which we wander clumsily”. Dr. Susana D. Castillo, american professor and researcher, San Diego State University, California, 2009.

Beatriz Iriart is an Argentine poet. She is a member of the Society of Latin American Writers of California and International Chapter on the Internet (SELC and CII) in the United States.
In 2015 Venezuelan composer Diana Arismendi wrote her work “In memoriam”, to commemorate the Holocaust, and the second movement was inspired in I was in Auschwitz… The concert was organized by Espacio Anna Frank from Caracas with the participation of Venezuela’s Symphony Orchestra directed by master Alfredo Rugeles.
From 2015 to 2025, her poems dedicated to the victims of the Holocaust have been read on radio programs, at commemorative events, and published in magazines in Europe and America.

Venezuelan theater director and art collector Rodolfo Molina says in the prologue to this book: “There is an undercurrent of liquid sensations in the distance that overwhelms the vision… In those blurred images, there is also everything you want to see.”

And Argentine poet and art collector Beatriz Iriart opines: “…works in which we perceive glimpses and shadows of a recent past and a dreamlike present. We are grateful for her legacy, which allows us to jump two Hopscotch lines and reach Heaven.”

Claudia Patricia Lopez Osornio studied set design at the La Plata Theater School and painting with artists Mirta Rosetti and Cristina Manganiello. She has held solo and group exhibitions in Argentina, Canada, and Venezuela, where she also taught puppet lighting workshops in Caracas and other parts of the country, invited by the prestigious puppeteer Eduardo Di Mauro.
