Title
Karaxu A Concert for Chile
Description
Poster, blank template for one advertising a concert by Karaxu to raise awareness of the issues in Chile during the Pinochet regime.
The poster is yellow, and features a drawing of a crowd with musical instruments alongside an orchestra and conductor. Above reads "Karazu Folk Music from Latin America". The poster is a likeness to NMLH.1992.409.12.62, but with no information on the concert itself, suggesting it was a template which would have been over-printed with the information about the concert.
Karaxu was a Chilean musical group founded in Paris in 1974, during the artists' exile from Chile following the Chilean Coup.
