In Manuel Bandeira’s poem the cactus is a statue. This statue falls and interrupts life in the city. In its death, the cactus becomes historicized and, in this sense, comes alive. The montage of the poem’s images and its vertical and free reading evoke other images such as those of Carl Einstein’s black sculpture in Negerplastik, those about black art in The statues also die by Chris Marker and Alain Resnais, or even those posed images as sculptures in ¡Que viva México! by Eisenstein. Revolutionary death and intractability make the cactus a surviving statue.References
