Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cold War claimed many lives and inflicted tremendous psychological pain throughout the Americas. The extreme polarization that resulted from pitting capitalism against communism held most of the creative and productive energy of the twentieth century captive. Many artists responded to Cold War struggles by engaging in activist art practice, using creative expression to mobilize social change. The Art of Solidarity examines how these creative practices in the arts and culture contributed to transnational solidarity campaigns that connected people across the Americas from the early twentieth century through the Cold War and its immediate aftermath. This collection of original essays is divided into four chronological sections: cultural and artistic production in the pre–Cold War era that set the stage for transnational solidarity organizing; early artistic responses to the rise of Cold War polarization and state repression; the centrality of cultural and artistic production in social movements of solidarity; and solidarity activism beyond movements. Essay topics range widely across regions and social groups, from the work of lesbian activists in Mexico City in the late 1970s and 1980s, to the exchanges and transmissions of folk-music practices from Cuba to the United States, to the uses of Chilean arpilleras to oppose and protest the military dictatorship. While previous studies have focused on politically engaged artists or examined how artist communities have created solidarity movements, this book is one of the first to merge both perspectives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays on the rise of community-focused art projects and anti-monuments in Mexico since the 1980s. Mexico has long been lauded and studied for its post-revolutionary public art, but recent artistic practices have raised questions about how public art is created and for whom it is intended. In The New Public Art, Mara Polgovsky Ezcurra, together with a number of scholars, artists, and activists, looks at the rise of community-focused art projects, from collective cinema to off-stage dance and theatre, and the creation of anti-monuments that have redefined what public art is and how people have engaged with it across the country since the 1980s. The New Public Art investigates the reemergence of collective practices in response to privatization, individualism, and alienating violence. Focusing on the intersection of art, politics, and notions of public participation and belonging, contributors argue that a new, non-state-led understanding of "the public" came into being in Mexico between the mid-1980s and the late 2010s. During this period, community-based public art bore witness to the human costs of abuses of state and economic power while proposing alternative forms of artistic creation, activism, and cultural organization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book discusses how some works of art produced in Latin America in the sixties, seventies, and eighties forged a different understanding of the female body, understood as space for the expression of a dissident subjectivity in relation to socially normalized places. Representations of art and of feminist activism interrogated the disciplining of the female body that entails as well the disciplining of the male body. Before a history of highly regulated artistic representations-regardless of the occasional exceptions a historian might point out-images erupted that questioned the social and institutional naturalization of the feminine and the masculine"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2020 Canadian Association for Latin American and Caribbean Studies (CALACS) Book Prize In post-1968 Mexico a group of artists and feminist activists began to question how feminine bodies were visually constructed and politicized across media. Participation of women was increasing in the public sphere, and the exclusive emphasis on written culture was giving way to audio-visual communications. Motivated by a desire for self-representation both visually and in politics, female artists and activists transformed existing regimes of media and visuality. Women Made Visible by Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda uses a transnational and interdisciplinary lens to analyze the fundamental and overlooked role played by artists and feminist activists in changing the ways female bodies were viewed and appropriated. Through their concern for self-representation (both visually and in formal politics), these women played a crucial role in transforming existing regimes of media and visuality—increasingly important intellectual spheres of action. Foregrounding the work of female artists and their performative and visual, rather than written, interventions in urban space in Mexico City, Aceves Sepúlveda demonstrates that these women feminized Mexico’s mediascapes and shaped the debates over the female body, gender difference, and sexual violence during the last decades of the twentieth century. Weaving together the practices of activists, filmmakers, visual artists, videographers, and photographers, Women Made Visible questions the disciplinary boundaries that have historically undermined the practices of female artists and activists and locates the development of Mexican second-wave feminism as a meaningful actor in the contested political spaces of the era, both in Mexico City and internationally.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El presente trabajo de investigación está inserto dentro de los llamados Estudios de Género, los cuales han sido impulsados principalmente por el movimiento de mujeres y por el movimiento feminista. A través de estos Estudios se han realizado todo tipo de investigaciones dedeconstrucción y construcción en todas las área del conocimiento humano. La producción artística en todas sus manifestaciones(producción, crítica, historia, entre otras) también ha sido sometida a revisión y reelaboración de sus conceptos y teorías. Esto ha influido definitivamente en la práctica artística tanto de hombres como de mujeres que se dedican al quehacer plástico. Nuestro trabajo se inscribe específicamente dentro de la de construcción y construcción que se ha llevado a cabo de la Historia del Arte. Lo cual ha servido para resignificar a las artistas, rescatar a muchas del olvido, y revalorar sus aportaciones a la creación plástica. Nuestra investigación la conforman un grupo de artistas mexicanas, que en la década de los 80. constituyen un movimiento artístico basado en el descubrimiento de temáticas "femeninas" o "feministas", que por un lado intenta romper con los mitos sobre la mujer imperante en nuestra sociedad y por otro, explora una imagen de la mujer desde esa voz del"yo" que anteriormente no le estaba permitida. Este grupo de artistas comparten una serie de características : participaron de la influencia que el movimiento estudiantil del 68 tuvo en el ámbito artístico; lo cual genera la aparición de los Grupos, que se caracterizan por ser una propuesta de arte alternativo, y muchas de ellas participan activamente en los Grupos; todas se sienten atraídas por los planteamientos feministas y participan en el movimiento feminista; la casi totalidad de su obra, en la década de los 80, tiene como tema principal a la mujer o temáticas que giran alrededor de la situación femenina.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the politics, ethics and stereotypical pitfalls of representational practices surrounding Gender-Based Violence (GBV) from a global perspective. The originality of the volume is linked to its cross-disciplinary perspective as the topic of representing GBV is analyzed across the domains of philosophy/epistemology, fiction and the arts (including literature, film, television series and music) and non-fictional representations in the media (including broadcast media, online/print journalism, transmedia activism). The volume identifies contemporary representational practices and the theoretical and critical responses, examining various aspects of popular culture from around the world. In doing so, the editors put feminism in conversation with global trends to identify its cultural frontline. The volume will appeal to scholars working on gender and violence from diverse fields.

Book excerpt: "En el México de los años 1970, con la participación cada vez mayor de la mujer en el ámbito público y cuando el predominio de la cultura escrita cedía el paso a la comunicación audiovisual, un grupo de artistas y activistas feministas comenzó a cuestionar cómo el cuerpo femenino era visualmente construido y politizado en los medios de comunicación. Desde un marco transnacional e interdisciplinario, Gabriela Aceves Sepúlveda analiza la casi siempre ignorada influencia de las artistas y activistas feministas en la forma de representar, conceptualizar y politizar el cuerpo femenino, como reflejo del entorno tanto de la Ciudad de México como del escenario mundial de la época. A partir del concepto de 'letradas visuales' que acuña la autora, se destaca la creciente participación de la mujer en esferas de influencia intelectual hasta entonces consideradas exclusivamente masculinas. La autora traza cómo el trabajo de las artistas y activistas y sus intervenciones performativas y visuales en el espacio de la ciudad feminizaron sus paisajes mediáticos, las esferas intelectuales y definieron los debates que habrían de darse en torno al cuerpo femenino, el género y la violencia sexual en las últimas décadas del siglo XX. Entretejiendo las prácticas de activistas, cineastas, artistas visuales, videógrafas y fotógrafas, Las mujeres se hacen visibles cuestiona los límites disciplinarios que históricamente han excluido a las artistas y activistas feministas de la Historia y ubica el desarrollo del feminismo mexicano de la segunda ola como un actor relevante en los entonces muy disputados espacios políticos de la Ciudad de México y a nivel internacional."--Back cover.

Download or read book Avant Garde Internationalism and Politics written by Andrea Giunta and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2007-07-16 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1960s were heady years in Argentina. Visual artists, curators, and critics sought to fuse art and politics; to broaden the definition of art to encompass happenings and assemblages; and, above all, to achieve international recognition for new, cutting-edge Argentine art. A bestseller in Argentina, Avant-Garde, Internationalism, and Politics is an examination of the 1960s as a brief historical moment when artists, institutions, and critics joined to promote an international identity for Argentina’s visual arts. The renowned Argentine art historian and critic Andrea Giunta analyzes projects specifically designed to internationalize Argentina’s art and avant-garde during the 1960s: the importation of exhibitions of contemporary international art, the sending of Argentine artists abroad to study, the organization of prize competitions involving prestigious international art critics, and the export of exhibitions of Argentine art to Europe and the United States. She looks at the conditions that made these projects possible—not least the Alliance for Progress, a U.S. program of “exchange” and “cooperation” meant to prevent the spread of communism through Latin America in the wake of the Cuban Revolution—as well as the strategies formulated to promote them. She describes the influence of Romero Brest, prominent art critic, supporter of abstract art, and director of the Centro de Artes Visuales del Instituto Tocuato Di Tella (an experimental art center in Buenos Aires); various group programs such as Nueva Figuración and Arte Destructivo; and individual artists including Antonio Berni, Alberto Greco, León Ferrari, Marta Minujin, and Luis Felipe Noé. Giunta’s rich narrative illuminates the contentious postwar relationships between art and politics, Latin America and the United States, and local identity and global recognition.
