Download or read book Forming Abstraction written by Adele Nelson and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art produced outside hegemonic centers is often seen as a form of derivation or relegated to a provisional status. Forming Abstraction turns this narrative on its head. In the first book-length study of postwar Brazilian art and culture, Adele Nelson highlights the importance of exhibitionary and pedagogical institutions in the development of abstract art in Brazil. By focusing on the formation of the São Paulo Biennial in 1951; the early activities of artists Geraldo de Barros, Lygia Clark, Waldemar Cordeiro, Hélio Oiticica, Lygia Pape, and Ivan Serpa; and the ideas of critics like Mário Pedrosa, Nelson illuminates the complex, strategic processes of citation and adaption of both local and international forms. The book ultimately demonstrates that Brazilian art institutions and abstract artistic groups—and their exhibitions of abstract art in particular—served as crucial loci for the articulation of societal identities in a newly democratic nation at the onset of the Cold War.
Download or read book The Colonial Wars in Contemporary Portuguese Fiction written by Isabel Moutinho and published by Tamesis Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Portuguese fiction that awakened public debate on imperialism The colonial wars in Angola, Mozambique and Guinea-Bissau in the 1960s and 1970s were Portugal's Vietnam. The novels discussed in this study, written by António Lobo Antunes, Lídia Jorge and Manuel Alegre among others, aroused passionate responses from the reading public and initiated a national debate, otherwise lacking in the contemporary press, with their systematic deconstruction of the rhetoric of patriotism and colonialism of António Salazar's regime. The author's approach is of necessity grounded in postcolonial thought, as these works represent the awakening of a post-imperial conscience in Portuguese literature and society. ISABEL MOUTINHO is a Lecturer in Spanish and Portuguese at La Trobe University, Australia.
Download or read book An Oral History of the Portuguese Colonial War written by Ângela Campos and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This oral history of ex-combatants of the Portuguese colonial war places the reader face-to-face with the men who were conscripted to fight the last and bloodiest of the West’s colonial wars in Africa, namely in Angola, Mozambique and Guinea-Bissau (then Portuguese Guinea), between 1961 and 1974. At the forefront of this work are the lived experiences of a wide range of Portuguese veterans, framed by broader insights about the post-war public memory of this event in Portugal. Moving away from stereotypical and polarized images of these ex-combatants, An Oral History of the Portuguese Colonial War: Conscripted Generation explores the memories and consequences of this war for these veterans and their society. Seeking to understand why Portuguese ex-combatants often feel neglected and historically unrecognised, this book presents a thorough portrait of a continually shifting – and at times paradoxical –individual and collective remembrance process.
Download or read book Art Museums of Latin America written by Michele Greet and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late nineteenth century, art museums have played crucial social, political, and economic roles throughout Latin America because of the ways that they structure representation. By means of their architecture, collections, exhibitions, and curatorial practices, Latin American art museums have crafted representations of communities, including nation states, and promoted particular group ideologies. This collection of essays, arranged in thematic sections, will examine the varying and complex functions of art museums in Latin America: as nation-building institutions and instruments of state cultural politics; as foci for the promotion of Latin American modernities and modernisms; as sites of mediation between local and international, private and public interests; as organizations that negotiate cultural construction within the Latin American diaspora and shape constructs of Latin America and its nations; and as venues for the contestation of elitist and Eurocentric notions of culture and the realization of cultural diversity rooted in multiethnic environments.

Download or read book Il tempo e il continuo written by Cord Friebe and published by Philosophy Kitchen. Rivista di filosofia contemporanea. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonostante lo sviluppo di una definizione matematica e rigorosa del continuo attraverso i lavori di Cantor e lo sviluppo teoria degli insiemi a fine ‘800, la continuità del tempo rimane un problema per la filosofia contemporanea. Questo vale soprattutto per quelle teorie che accentuano la natura dinamica del tempo e del cambiamento, come la teoria A del tempo e in particolare il presentismo. Come è possibile pensare il tempo come continuo e perciò come esteso, se esso è, in quanto dinamico, in eterno divenire? Come possiamo concepire la continuità del tempo in contrapposizione alla continuità dello spazio? Attraverso un analisi di diverse concezioni del continuo nella storia della filosofia così, il presente volume intende esplorare diverse risposte a tali domande.
