Download or read book Wifredo Lam written by Catherine David and published by Tate. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Wilfredo Lam (1902-1982) is one of the most important figures of global modernism. Travelling widely over a long career, he became friendly with many of the twentieth century's most significant artists and writers, including Pablo Picasso, André Breton and Aimé Césaire. Born in Cuba, Lam studied in Spain in the 1920s and was swept up in the Spanish Civil War. In France he encountered Picasso and surrealism, before returning to Cuba in 1941. It was there that he developed his characteristic images that suggested the secret religious powers of the descendants of slavery. With its potential to overturn the relationships between European and Caribbean culture, Lam's remarkable pictorial language has resonated on both sides of the Atlantic for more than sixty years. Dazzlingly illustrated whit over 300 works, including paintings, drawings and photographs, this beautiful book serves to introduce newcomers to Lam, as well as deepen the understanding of those already familiar with his work"--Back cover.
Download or read book Andr Breton in Exile written by Victoria Clouston and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the journey of André Breton, the leader of the Surrealist movement, into exile during the Second World War, the author of this book traces the trajectory of his thought and poetic output from 1941–1948. Through a close examination of the major – and as yet little studied – works written during these years, she demonstrates how Breton’s quest for "a new myth" for the postwar world led him to widen his enquiry into hermeticism, myth, and the occult. This ground-breaking study establishes Breton’s profound intellectual debt to 19th-century Romanticism, its literature and thought, revealing how it defined his understanding of hermeticism and the occult, and examining the differences between the two. It shows how, having abandoned political action on leaving the Communist Party in 1935, Breton nonetheless held firmly to political thought, moving in his quest for a better world via Hermes Trismegistus across the utopian ideas of Charles Fourier and the "magical" practices of the Hopi Indians. The author finally reveals Breton’s misreading of the situation in postwar Paris on his return in 1946, and his failure to communicate the span of his ideas for creating a better society while at the same time maintaining a close connection between art and life.
Download or read book Afro Asian Connections in Latin America and the Caribbean written by Luisa Marcela Ossa and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Afro-Asian Connections in Latin America and the Caribbean explores the connections between people of Asian and African descent in Latin America and the Caribbean. Although their journeys started from different points of origin, spanning two separate oceans, their point of contact in this hemisphere brought them together under a hegemonic system that would treat these seemingly disparate continental ancestries as one. Historically, an overwhelming majority of people of African and Asian descent were brought to the Americas as sources of labor to uphold the plantation, agrarian economies leading to complex relationships and interactions. The contributions to this collection examine various aspects of these connections. The authors bring to the forefront perspectives regarding history, literature, art, and religion and engage how they are manifested in these Afro-Asian relationships and interactions. They investigate what has received little academic engagement outside the acknowledgement that there are groups who are of African and Asian descent. In regard to their relationships with the dominant Europeanized center, references to both groups typically only view them as singular entities. What this interdisciplinary collection presents is a more cohesive approach that strives to place them at the center together and view their relationships in their historical contexts.

Download or read book Transmodern written by Christian Kravagna and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-11 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we reconfigure our picture of modern art after the postcolonial turn without simply adding regional art histories to the Eurocentric canon? Transmodern examines the global dimension of modern art by tracing the crossroads of different modernisms in Asia, Europe and the Americas. Featuring case studies in Indian modernism, the Harlem Renaissance and post-war abstraction, it demonstrates the significance of transcultural contacts between artists from both sides of the colonial divide. The book argues for the need to study non-western avant-gardes and Black avant-gardes within the west as transmodern counter-currents to mainstream modernism. It situates transcultural art practices from the 1920s to the 1960s within the framework of anti-colonial movements and in relation to contemporary transcultural thinking that challenged colonial concepts of race and culture with notions of syncretism and hybridity.
