Rethinking Third Cinema
In 1968, Argentinean Filmmakers Fernando Solanas and Octavio Getino first articulated the theory of a "Third Cinema" - a revolutionary genre of cinema that would counter oppression on a global scale. Intended to be a "guerilla cinema" geared at contesting the overwhelming dominance of Western cinema, Solana and Getino distinguished "Third Cinema" from other forms of cinema, classifying these other types as First Cinema (commercial cinema epitomized by Hollywood) and Second Cinema. "Third Cinema" was supposed to be a liberationary tool - particularly for the bulk of the world that was subject to European imperialism, such as Latin America, Africa and Asia. Spanning a wide geographical spread ...

Couture and Consensus
Following Argentina’s revolution in 1810, the dress of young patriots inspired a nation and distanced its politics from the relics of Spanish colonialism. Fashion writing often escaped the notice of authorities, allowing authors to masquerade political ideas under the guise of frivolity and entertainment. In Couture and Consensus, Regina A. Root maps this pivotal and overlooked facet of Argentine cultural history, showing how politics emerged from dress to disrupt authoritarian practices and stimulate creativity in a newly independent nation.Drawing from genres as diverse as fiction, poetry, songs, and fashion magazines, Root offers a sartorial history that produces an original understandi...
The Routledge Handbook for Global South Studies on Subjectivities
The Routledge Handbook for Global South Studies on Subjectivities provides a series of exemplary studies conjoining perspectives from Asian, African, and Latin American Studies on subjectivity in the Global South as a central category of social and cultural analysis. The contestation of the Northern myth of the autonomous subject—the dispositive that contests subject formation in the South by describing it as fragmented, incomplete, delayed or simply deviant, has been a cornerstone of theory production from the South over the years. This volume’s contributions offer an interdisciplinary and transarea dialogue, reframing issues of selfhood and alterity, of personhood, of the human, of the...
Arte argentino de los 90
El material aquí reunido fue pensado y escrito durante los años noventa o apenas concluida la década. Y ahora se publica por primera vez, cuando el interés por el arte argentino de aquellos años sigue creciendo de manera muy notoria, local e internacionalmente. Fabián Lebenglik, desde la crítica militante, y Gustavo Bruzzone, desde el coleccionismo y el registro programático en video de la escena de aquellos años, fueron testigos y protagonistas del fenómeno y presentan aquí un volumen exhaustivo y heterogéneo, cuya primera parte está dedicada a un conjunto de ensayos especialmente comisionados y escritos, apenas clausurado el siglo XX, por especialistas que vieron y pensaron muy bien las artes visuales argentinas de aquel período. La segunda parte del volumen se compone de una amplia selección de artículos, reseñas y entrevistas de Lebenglik, publicados entre 1990 y 1999 en el diario Página/12. La tercera parte reúne decenas de testimonios de los protagonistas de las artes visuales de entonces, que hoy se resignifican por su lucidez. Por último, al final del recorrido se encontrarán completas cronologías de las exposiciones, artistas y lugares de exhibición.

Another Aesthetics Is Possible
In Another Aesthetics Is Possible Jennifer Ponce de León examines the roles that art can play in the collective labor of creating and defending another social reality. Focusing on artists and art collectives in Argentina, Mexico, and the United States, Ponce de León shows how experimental practices in the visual, literary, and performing arts have been influenced by and articulated with leftist movements and popular uprisings that have repudiated neoliberal capitalism and its violence. Whether enacting solidarity with Zapatista communities through an alternate reality game or using surrealist street theater to amplify the more radical strands of Argentina's human rights movement, these artists fuse their praxis with forms of political mobilization from direct-action tactics to economic resistance. Advancing an innovative transnational and transdisciplinary framework of analysis, Ponce de León proposes a materialist understanding of art and politics that brings to the fore the power of aesthetics to both compose and make visible a world beyond capitalism.
