The Mexican Museum of San Francisco Papers, 1971-2006
The Mexican Museum of San Francisco was founded in 1975 by artist Peter Rodriguez to "foster the exhibition, conservation, and dissemination of Mexican and Chicano art and culture for all peoples." Its holdings include some 14,000 objects with a historical range extending from pre-conquest Mexico to contemporary Mexican American and Latino communities in the United States. The Chicano Studies Research Center's collection includes a broad selection of the museum's administrative papers and related materials. Karen Mary Davalos draws on these documents to trace the origins of the museum and explore how its mission has been shaped by its visionary artist-founder, local art collectors and patrons, Mexican art and culture, and the Chicano movement. A detailed finding aid and a selected bibliography complete the volume.
El abrazo de amor de Kahlo, Estrada, Zenil y yo
El Abrazo de amor de Kahlo, Estrada, Zenil y yo teje una genealogía matrizal entre estos artistas desde la performatividad del cuerpo y sus procesos creativos. Tres hombres embarazados por Frida Kahlo es la (im)probable y potente metáfora que hace reflexionar sobre la (pro)creación de esta artista y cuestionar el ensimismamiento que ha despolitizado su trabajo artístico. La perspectiva de que lo personal es político atraviesa este estudio, destacando la autobiografía, el cuerpo y el contexto sociocultural como las bases primordiales del arte. Enlazados al trabajo artístico-investigativo del autor, estos artistas, temas y posiciones políticas construyen un bricolaje entre artes plásticas, danza contemporánea y performance para pensar-hacer el arte como lucha en nuestra América Latina colonizada, explotada, pero también valiente, exuberante y, si se quiere, revolucionaria.

Readings in Latin American Modern Art
This important and welcome volume is the first English-language anthology of writings on Latin American modern art of the twentieth century. The book includes some fifty seminal essays and documents—including statements, interviews, and manifestoes by artists—that encompass the broad diversity of this emerging field. Many of these materials are difficult to access and some are translated here for the first time. Together the selections explore the breadth and depth of Latin American modern art as well as its distinctive evolution apart from American and European art history. Included in this collection are fascinating ideas and insights on the impact of the avant-garde in the 1920s, the Mexican mural movement, Surrealism and other fantasy-based styles, modern architecture, geometric and optical art, concrete and neo-concrete art, and political conceptualism. For students and scholars of Latin American art, the volume offers an invaluable collection of primary and secondary sources.
