Revolutionary Horizons

ISBN: 0300221320
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Modernism in Havana reached its climax during the turbulent years of the 1950s as a generation of artists took up abstraction as a means to advance artistic and political goals in the name of Cuba Libre. During a decade of insurrection and, ultimately, revolution, abstract art signaled the country’s cultural worldliness and its purchase within the international avant-garde. This pioneering book offers the first in-depth examination of Cuban art during that time, following the intersecting trajectories of the artist groups Los Once and Los Diez against a dramatic backdrop of modernization and armed rebellion. Abigail McEwen explores the activities of a constellation of artists and writers invested in the ideological promises of abstraction, and reflects on art’s capacity to effect radical social change. Featuring previously unpublished artworks, new archival research, and extensive primary sources, this remarkable volume excavates a rich cultural history with links to the development of abstraction in Europe and the Americas.

Category : Art
Languages : es
Pages : 221
Book Description
Además de una selección de más de cien imágenes que recorren las exhibiciones de la artista, la edición comisionó la escritura de tres ensayos inéditos a prestigiosos críticos e historiadores. Un texto del ensayista, crítico y curador francés Philippe Cyroulnik analiza los vínculos de la obra de Jitrik con las tradiciones abstractas y de izquierda de principios de siglo; un ensayo de Agustín Diez Fischer da cuenta de la trayectoria de la artista y su relación con la temporalidad y finalmente, la curadora Florencia Qualina se da la tarea de pensar la relación de las pinturas de Jitrik con los cultos y rituales americanos. Este libro es el décimo título de la colección de artistas argentinos que publica Adriana Hidalgo editora. «Por un lado, sus trabajos parecen desfasados de las prácticas contemporáneas, anacrónicos en la recuperación de las ideas políticas del sigloXX y de las experimentaciones artísticas de las vanguardias históricas. Por otro, su devenir personal como artista atraviesa cada uno de los espacios por medio de los cuales se ha narrado la historia del arte argentino de las últimas décadas.» Agustín Diez Fischer Esta edición contiene la escritura de tres ensayos inéditos a prestigiosos críticos e historiadores.

Configuring the New Lima Art Scene
Author: Giuliana Borea
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000182711
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
This book examines the contemporary art world in Latin America from an anthropological perspective and recognises the recent reconfiguration of Lima's art scene. Giuliana Borea traces the practices of artists, curators, collectors, art dealers and museums, identifying three key moments in this reconfiguration of contemporary art in Lima: artistic explorations and new curatorial narratives; museum reinforcement and the strengthening of Latin American art networks; and of the rise of the art market. In so doing, Borea highlights the different actors that come into play in activating and de-activating directions and imaginations. The book exposes the practices of the local, the global, indigeneity and politics in the arts, and reveals that the strengthening of the Lima art scene has fostered the expansion of dominant art views and formats mobilised by transnational elite actors. Featuring analytical chapters interspersed with personal stories, Borea's book presents an in-depth analysis of a specific art scene to open up a new way of understanding contemporary art practices in relation to globalisation, neoliberalism and the city.
