This book is published in conjunction with the exhibition SPLENDOR: Juan Luna, Painter as Hero, a multimedia exhibition mounted in celebration of the 125th anniversary of Philippine Independence and Nationhood. The exhibition and accompanying publication aim to capture a watershed moment in our history through the analysis and investigation of the long-lost painting by Juan Luna, Hymen, oh Hyménée! which received a Bronze medal at the 1889 Universal Exposition in Paris. Organized around three main themes, namely: the world of 1889, the complex imagery of Hymen, oh Hyménée!, and the painter as hero, the exhibition hopes to be both a fitting introduction to this important cultural treasure and a compelling prompt to revisit our country’s journey to nationhood, amid a radically and rapidly transforming world surrounding it at that time.
This catalogue is published in conjunction with the Asian premiere of Zóbel: The Future of the Past, exhibited at Ayala Museum from September 14, 2024 to January 26, 2025.

Technofuturos offers a critical and innovative exploration of the forms of representation found in Latina/o studies. The editors, Nancy Raquel Mirabal and Agustin La--Montes, challenge conventional notions of Latina/o identities, histories, and cultures by historicizing and differentiating the multiple discourses of Latinidad. The essays examine the temporality and spatiality of socio-historical processes, the multiple and varied constellations of power, and the complicated geographies of desire. By analyzing the discursive, performative, and aesthetic dimensions of knowledge, this book contests and reconstructs Latina/o studies. Technofuturos is a captivating and sophisticated read that will appeal to scholars of Latina/o studies and those interested in postcolonial critique.
Summary: In 1975 the Mexican writer Ulises Carrión, who had begun to publish his own artists' books in about 1971, set up Other Books and So in Amsterdam, the first bookshop specializing in this type of works, which also functioned as a publishing company and an archive. Carrión's involvement in Mail Art and Postal Art came into being. Some of these pieces were exhibited for the first time at the Graphic Arts Institute of Oaxaca and at the Library of Mexico, as exhibits that served as an introduction for the Ulises Carrion retrospective at the Carrillo Art Museum.
