The Board at Bar San Roque

Two photographs of Paraguayan Centre members in Asunción. On the first Tuesday of every month, the Paraguayan Centre’s Board meets at Bar San Roque – an iconic meeting spot for Paraguayan writers and PEN members – keeping alive a tradition that has been ongoing since the Centre was first established in 1943. The lower photograph shows Nelson Aguilera and Oscar Pineda holding a poster with an illustration of Aguilera on it, which was used during the campaigns for Aguilera’s release after he was imprisoned on accusations of plagarism in 2013.

Dos fotografías de los miembros del Centro Paraguayo en Asunción. El primer martes de cada mes, los miembros de la jutna del Centro Paraguayo se reúnen en el Bar San Roque - un lugar de reunión icónico para los escritores paraguayos y miembros de PEN - manteniendo viva la tradición desde que se fundó el Centro, en 1943. La fotografía inferior muestra Nelson Aguilera y Oscar Pineda aguantando un cartel con una ilustración de Aguilera, usada durante la campaña para liberar a Aguilera, que fue encarcelado después de ser acusado de plagio, en 2013.
