Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anna Bella Geiger (Rio de Janeiro, 1933) is a pioneering Brazilian artist, with an extensive international career. Her work has an experimental and innovative character, traversing references that are political and conceptual, formal and aesthetical, personal and bodily. Geiger was one of the first artists to engage with abstract art in Brazil, and was also one of the first to work with video and mail art in the country. This is the most comprehensive monograph on the artist to date, and accompanies Geiger's first full-length museum retrospective, organized by the Museu de Arte de São Paulo Assis Chateaubriand - MASP in partnership with the Serviço Social do Comércio - Sesc Avenida Paulista, in São Paulo, and the Stedelijk Museum voor Actuele Kunst - S.M.A.K., in Ghent. The publication's title is borrowed from one of Geiger's most emblematic works, a set of postcards now in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Centre Pompidou, Paris, the Tate Modern, London, the Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid, as well as MASP: Native Brazil/Alien Brazil (1976/1977). This work serves as a starting point and a common thread for the exhibition, charting other works in which Geiger questions hegemonic narratives, Brazil's colonial past and the country's social reality, articulating politics, self-representation, irony and fiction, often based on an autobiographical pespective. The exhibition catalog is organized by Adriano Pedrosa and Tomás Toledo, from the MASP, and includes newly commissioned texts by Bernardo Mosqueira, Estrella de Diego, Philippe Van Cauteren, Tomás Toledo, Zanna Gilbert, a biographical note by Gabriela De Laurentiis, and an interview with the artist by Adriano Pedrosa. With 288 pages, the publication reproduces 369 images, spanning the artits's entire trajectory, from the 1950 until the present day, with its different formats, supports, media and languages, and is divided into seven chapters: Self-Portraits (1951-2003), Visceral Works (1965-1969), Maps and Geographies (1972-2018), About Art (1973-2018), Notebooks (1974-1977), History of Brazil (1975-2015), and Soft and Nocturnals Works (1984-2014).

Download or read book Dissident Practices written by Claudia Calirman and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dissident Practices, Claudia Calirman examines sixty years of visual art by prominent and emerging Brazilian women artists from the 1960s to the present, covering the period from the military dictatorship to the return to democracy in the mid-1980s, the social changes of the 2000s, the rise of the Right in the late-2010s, and the recent development of an overtly feminist art practice. Though they were lauded as key figures in Brazilian art, these artists still faced adversity and constraints because of their gender. Although many of them in the 1960s and 1970s disavowed the term feminism, Calirman gives a nuanced account of how they responded to authoritarianism, engaged with trauma in the aftermath of the military dictatorship, interrogated social gender norms, and fought against women’s objectification. By battling social inequalities, structures of power, and state violence, these artists create political agency in a society in which women remain targets of brutality and discrimination.

Download or read book Art Systems written by Elena Shtromberg and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From currency and maps to heavily censored newspapers and television programming, Art Systems explores visual forms of critique and subversion during the height of Brazilian dictatorship, drawing sometimes surprising connections between artistic production and broader processes of social exchange during a period of authoritarian modernization. Positioning the works beyond the prism of politics, Elena Shtromberg reveals subtle forms of subversion and critique that reinvented the artists’ political terrain. Analyzing key examples from Cildo Meireles, Antonio Manuel, Artur Barrio, Anna Bella Geiger, Sonia Andrade, Geraldo Mello, and others, the book offers a new framework for theorizing artistic practice. By focusing on the core economic, media, technological, and geographic conditions that circumscribed artistic production during this pivotal era, Shtromberg excavates an array of art systems that played a role in the everyday lives of Brazilians. An examination of the specific historical details of the social systems that were integrated into artistic production, this unique study showcases works that were accessed by audiences far outside the confines of artistic institutions. Proliferating during one of Brazil’s most socially and politically fraught decades, the works—spanning cartography to video art—do not conform to an easily identifiable style, form, material use, or medium. As a result of this breadth, Art Systems gives voice to the multifaceted forces at play in a unique chapter of Latin American cultural history.

This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The State of the World's Biodiversity for Food and Agriculture presents the first global assessment of biodiversity for food and agriculture worldwide. Biodiversity for food and agriculture is the diversity of plants, animals and micro-organisms at genetic, species and ecosystem levels, present in and around crop, livestock, forest and aquatic production systems. It is essential to the structure, functions and processes of these systems, to livelihoods and food security, and to the supply of a wide range of ecosystem services. It has been managed or influenced by farmers, livestock keepers, forest dwellers, fish farmers and fisherfolk for hundreds of generations. Prepared through a participatory, country-driven process, the report draws on information from 91 country reports to provide a description of the roles and importance of biodiversity for food and agriculture, the drivers of change affecting it and its current status and trends. It describes the state of efforts to promote the sustainable use and conservation of biodiversity for food and agriculture, including through the development of supporting policies, legal frameworks, institutions and capacities. It concludes with a discussion of needs and challenges in the future management of biodiversity for food and agriculture. The report complements other global assessments prepared under the auspices of the Commission on Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture, which have focused on the state of genetic resources within particular sectors of food and agriculture.
