Velázquez, Painter & Curator
This book is the first to address the curatorial career of Diego Velázquez, painter to King Philip IV of Spain and chamberlain of his royal palace. It investigates the role that Velázquez played in overseeing the display of the Habsburg art collection, then the richest in the western world, and the role, in turn, that this practice played in his creative trajectory between his arrival at the Spanish court in 1623 and his death in 1660. This book thus recasts Velázquez’s career as an episode in the history of the curator.
La Diócesis de Cádiz
Recorrido por la situación de la Iglesia y de la vida espiritual en la diócesis de Cádiz durante los siglos XVI a XIX: las riquezas del clero, su vida cotidiana, su jerarquización interna y la religiosidad de los fieles mediante el estudio de las cofradías, las devociones principales o la persecución inquisitorial, dedicando una especial atención a las transformaciones habidas a partir de 1750.
Hyperborder
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
