On our first Monday in Buenos Aires, a beautiful warm day with a blue sky, we walked by the Recoleta Cemetery, through Buenos Aires Design (a shopping mall specializing in home furnishings and decor), and towards the Facultad de Derecho (law school). Next door is the famous Floralis Genérica, a huge modern art sculpture made of aircraft aluminum.
We've often visited and admired this park and sculpture, but were surprised this time to find the grounds covered in hundreds of life-size cut-out posters of a voluptuous Argentine actress. Apparently it had been some sort of public art exhibit, but workers were taking down the cut-outs and stacking them up for removal.
We've googled and asked and still don't know -- do you know who the woman is?
Edited to add: Eva got it right in the comments (thanks!) -- it's "Coca" Sarli. Here's the English Wiki page on her. Be careful if you google for images: you'll get a lot of 1960s style female nudity.
Isabel "Coca" Sarli?
