Book Diversidad y arte latinoamericano

Download or read book Diversidad y arte latinoamericano written by Andrea Giunta and published by Siglo XXI Editores. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Qué es normal en la vida y en el arte? ¿Qué es normal en la sexualidad, en la academia, en el museo? El arte, con su potencia de ruptura y extrañamiento, ha sido siempre un espacio privilegiado para poner en tensión las reglas sociales de la normalidad. Para revelar en imágenes la complejidad de un mundo vasto y diverso. Y, sin embargo, ¿es capaz de cuestionar sus propias normas, sus vías de consagración, sus instituciones, sus públicos? Diversidad y arte latinoamericano se detiene justamente allí, para recorrer la obra de artistas que, de distintas maneras, rompieron el "techo de cristal", quebraron las limitaciones que dificultaban su visibilidad, transgredieron el canon. El arte de América Latina –fruto de la multiplicidad que tramaron las experiencias de la colonialidad, la independencia, la América indígena, la América negra, las vanguardias– es también expresión de afectos, culturas y creencias minorizadas. Con minuciosa atención a la especificidad de las imágenes, pero sin perder de vista su capacidad de producir efectos políticos, Andrea Giunta recorre el escenario del arte latinoamericano entre los años sesenta y el presente. Entre Argentina, Chile, Brasil, México, Colombia, Uruguay, Paraguay y Perú, las experiencias que aborda (algunas individuales, otras colectivas) se piensan como emergentes de esas fuerzas contenidas. Desde su singularidad, las trayectorias analizadas transforman poéticas establecidas a la vez que logran interpelar sus contextos y proponer agendas: discuten el lugar de la mujer en la sociedad, las fronteras que imponen la raza o la edad, interrogan las miradas capacitistas, traen a escena formas de la sexualidad que escapan a lo normativo. Como en Feminismo y arte latinoamericano, la autora cuenta la historia de una revolución en curso, una en la que imaginar y representar el mundo desde subjetividades y formas de conocimiento disidentes supone disputar espacios y combatir mecanismos de exclusión largamente afianzados. Pero también multiplicar públicos y expandir lo sensible.

Book Defining Latin American Art

Download or read book Defining Latin American Art written by Dorothy Chaplik and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2005 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This bilingual book describes the numerous elements that have shaped the twentieth and twenty-first century art of Latin America. Beginning with the pre-Columbian cultures of Mexico, Central America, South America and the Caribbean Islands, and following historical developments through today, the values and symbols of these early civilizations have remained a constant in much of Latin American art. The work gives a brief history of Latin American art, defines the modernist movements and trends that surfaced in Paris in the early twentieth century and traces the way Latin American artists adapted the forms to express their own national culture. The main section is a list of significant artworks, each accompanied by biographical details from the artist's life, an explanation of the work's subject matter and a discussion of the inspiration and meaning behind it. The work boasts a wide selection of illustrations, including three color inserts, and concludes with a bibliography.

Book Art and Visibility in Migratory Culture

Download or read book Art and Visibility in Migratory Culture written by Mieke Bal and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2011-01-15 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the idea that art can enact small-scale resistances against the status quo in the social domain. These acts, which we call “little resistances,” determine the limited yet potentially powerful political impact of art. From different angles, seventeen authors consider the spaces where art events occur as “political spaces,” and explore how such spaces host events of disagreements in migratory culture. The newly coined word “migratory” refers to the sensate traces of the movements of migration that characterize contemporary culture. In other words, movement is not an exceptional occurrence in an otherwise stable world, but a normal, generalized process in a world that cannot be grasped in terms of any given notion of stability. Thus the book offers fresh reflections on art’s power to move people, in the double sense of that verb, and shows how it helps to illuminate migratory culture’s contributions to this process.

Download or read book Ausstellungskat written by James Oles and published by Smithsonian Books (DC). This book was released on 1993-09-17 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Richly illustrated with works of both high culture and commercial kitsch - many of them never before reproduced - South of the Border revisits an era when Mexico captured the North American imagination." "Between the final years of the Mexican Revolution of 1910-17 and the immediate aftermath of World War II, dozens of U.S. painters and photographers flocked to Mexico, among them Edward Weston, Paul Strand, Marsden Hartley, Helen Levitt, Josef Albers, and Robert Motherwell. South of the Border reconsiders the work of these and other American artists, along with representative works of their Mexican contemporaries and examples of the vast quantities of commercial art - illustrated books and magazines, travel posters and postcards - and Mexican folk and tourist art that contributed to Americans' image of their neighbor to the south." "Artists visiting or living in Mexico, Oles writes, were enthralled with the country's climate, pre-Columbian heritage, and folk culture. Especially during the Great Depression, not only artists but the general American public as well saw in Mexico an appealing alternative to the pressures of industrial society. Some artists, including Winold Reiss, Thomas Handforth, and Doris Rosenthal, won acclaim for their depictions of a seemingly timeless rural life in Mexican villages. Others, among them Pablo O'Higgins, Elizabeth Catlett, and Robert Mallary, fired their work with politics, bringing the movement for social reform directly to the people through large murals and popular graphics." "In a bilingual text - English and Spanish - that accompanies more than 180 illustrations, Oles describes these and many other U.S. artists drawn to Mexico, placing their work in its original political and cultural context. An accompanying essay by Karen Cordero Reiman reexamines the history of Mexican art from 1910 through 1950, providing a fresh interpretation of a period long obscured by nationalist discourse and the domination of muralism." "Published in cooperation with the Yale University Art Gallery, South of the Border includes capsule biographies and selected bibliographies for many of the artists discussed in the text."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book excerpt: From the nineteen-twenties on, Latin America became a suitable terrain in which to apply the ideal embodied by the Modern Movement. This period is approached in the works of the Venezuelan artist Alexander Apostol by exploring the remnants of that ideal of modernity from a critical standpoint. Through the texts by the architect Juan Herreros and the art critics and curators Julieta Gonzalez and Cuauhtemoc Medina, various aspects of his oeuvre are analyzed alongside the context in which it arose. Whether from the perspective of architecture, art history or a political analysis of contemporary Venezuela, each author contributes to a comprehensive study of Alexander Apostol's production.

Book Methodological Innovations in Research and Academic Writing

Download or read book Methodological Innovations in Research and Academic Writing written by Zimmerman, Aaron Samuel and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-10-08 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovative methodological approaches are vital for experienced researchers and early-career researchers alike to conduct research. In order to provide them with the best possible resources, the methodologies must be comprehensive and describe the data sources, approaches to data collection, and approaches to data analysis that are typically employed within the given methodological approach. Methodological Innovations in Research and Academic Writing serves as a resource for graduate students and higher education faculty and presents a number of methodological innovations in research as well as applied examples of these methodologies in practice. The chapters focus on the application of methodological approaches (through the presentation of real-world examples) and descriptions of the epistemological foundations of the given methodologies so that researchers can fully articulate and justify their methodological choices in the context of their research design. It is a crucial guide for graduate students who are designing and writing their doctoral dissertations as it introduces them to the best practices related to rigorous research design and academic writing. This book is ideal for graduate students, higher education faculty, researchers, and academicians.

Book Feminism and Art in Postwar Italy

Download or read book Feminism and Art in Postwar Italy written by Francesco Ventrella and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A renowned art critic of the 1960s, Carla Lonzi abandoned the art world in 1970 to found Rivolta Femminile, a pioneering feminist collective in Italy. Rather than separating the art world luminary from the activist, however, this book looks at the two together. It demonstrates that even as Lonzi refused art, she articulated how feminist spaces and communities drew strength from creativity. The eleven essays in this book document the artistic and feminist circles of postwar Italy, a time characterised both by radical protest and avant-garde aesthetics, using primary and archival sources never before translated into English. They map Lonzi's deep connections to the influential Italian Arte Povera movement, and explore her complicated relationship with female artists of the time, such as Carla Accardi and Suzanne Santoro. Carla Lonzi's written work and activism represents a crucial, but previously overlooked, feminist intervention in traditional art history from beyond the Anglo-American canon. This book is a timely and urgent addition to our understanding of radical politics, separatist feminism and art criticism in the postwar period.
