This volume is a unique contribution to Latin American studies
because it underscores the essential role that women have played in
the arenas of modern and contemporary art. [This book] provides
valuable and much-needed assistance to the researcher. (From the
foreword by Elizabeth Ferrer) With more than 1,500 references on
nearly 800 women Latin American Women Artists, Kahlo and Look Who
Else pays tribute to the rich and multifaceted artistic
accomplishments of women in and from 20th-century Latin America.
Frida Kahlo has until recently dominated the interest of scholars,
curators, and the public to the point of almost eclipsing the
achievements of other artists from the region. This selectively
annotated bibliography begins systematically to identify other
women - painters, sculptors, printmakers, photographers,
performance artists, and others - who have made significant
contributions to the history of art in the region. The first
section, the main part of the work, consists of individual artists
grouped in an alphabetical country arrangement. Artists in each
country are listed A-Z, as are the citations about them.
Annotations are descriptive and highlight, among other details, the
presence of biographical and professional development information
in the analyzed materials. A section of general works arranged by
country follows, consisting principally of periodical and
monographic literature that deals with numerous women, and a
listing of the women mentioned in the cited materials. The volume
has two appendices. The first is an analyzed list of 77 collective
exhibitions in which works by these women have been presented. The
second appendix groups the artists by country, allowing for an
in-brief look at all of the artists identified in the bibliography.
The name index references artists to the main section by country
code and also includes entries for authors, curators, and
exhibition catalogue essayists.
