Historian and critic López Anaya presents a comprehensive and updated version of the history of art in Argentina from the colonial period to the 21st century, covering the imaginario colonial painters, the academic, the romantic foreign artists, the Centennial nationalism, the critical art, the painters from Boca, muralism, the Spanish exiled in Buenos Aires, the constructivism, conceptualism and political art of the 1970's. The final chapters describe the current artistic trends: the new painting as reflection of violence, identity and genre, the kitsch and the new technological media like video art and video installations. The book is profusely illustrated and offers a global vision of art development in Argentina.
Beginning with volume 41 (1979), the University of Texas Press became the publisher of the Handbook of Latin American Studies, the most comprehensive annual bibliography in the field. Compiled by the Hispanic Division of the Library of Congress and annotated by a corps of more than 130 specialists in various disciplines, the Handbook alternates from year to year between social sciences and humanities. The Handbook annotates works on Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the Guianas, Spanish South America, and Brazil, as well as materials covering Latin America as a whole. Most of the subsections are preceded by introductory essays that serve as biannual evaluations of the literature and research under way in specialized areas. The Handbook of Latin American Studies is the oldest continuing reference work in the field. Lawrence Boudon became the editor in 2000. The subject categories for Volume 58 are as follows: Electronic Resources for the Humanities Art History (including ethnohistory) Literature (including translations from the Spanish and Portuguese) Philosophy: Latin American Thought Music
