With insightful essays and interviews, this volume examines how artists have experimented with the medium of video across different regions of Latin America since the 1960s. The emergence of video art in Latin America is marked by multiple points of development, across more than a dozen artistic centers, over a period of more than twenty-five years.

This is the first book on experimental cinemas of Latin American and Spain to offer a comprehensive look at old and new technologies, including Super 8, VHS, cell phones, virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and more.

This book, which brings together the writing of directors, producers, scholars and critics, examines the current state of Latin American cinema. Exploring tendencies and possibilities for the future of the audiovisual arts within the context of recent changes in methods of production and circulation, the aut...

O livro "Arte, memória e mídia: diálogos possíveis" reúne textos de pesquisadores, artistas, curadores e críticos nacionais e internacionais com amplo reconhecimento em sua área.

The newer studies help complete the profile of Trilnick and analyze a series of photographs, installations and videos as part of the larger trajectory of his work.
