About this product

Product Information

The 20th century art of Latin America is art in the western tradition, and its leading figures - Wilfredo Lam, Roberto Matta, Diego Rivera, Joaquin Torres-Garcia, to name only a few - have achieved international stature. Yet much of the writing about this art has offered either a victimised view of what Latin American art should be. This pathfinding book, by contrast, seeks not to invent Latin American art but to look at it from the points of view of its own artists and critics. Drawing on some 40 years of studying and teaching Latin American art, the author surveys the major currents and artists of the 20th century in Mexico, the Caribbean, and South America (including Brazil). She progresses chronologically from modernismo and the break with 19th century academic art to some of the trends of the 1980s, setting each movement within its historical and cultural contexts. This survey of modern Latin American art should thus be a guide to a vibrant art tradition, as well as a vital teaching tool. Illustrated with colour and black and white reproductions of major works, this book should be of interest to artists, collectors, historians, writers, and social scientists, as well as art historians.
