Born to a prominent family in Havana but exiled to the United
States as a girl, Ana Mendieta (1948-1985) is regarded as one of
the most significant artists of the postwar era. During her
too-brief career, she produced a distinctive body of work that
includes drawings, installations, performances, photographs, and
sculptures. Less well known is her remarkable and prolific
production of films. This richly illustrated catalogue presents a
series of sequential color stills from each of twenty-one original
Super 8 films that have been newly preserved and digitized in high
definition for the 2015 exhibition, combined with related
photographs, and reference still images from all of the artist's
104 filmworks; together these illustrations sample the full range
of the artist's film practice from 1971 to 1981. The book includes
Mendieta's first published comprehensive filmography resulting from
three years of collaborative research conducted by the Estate of
Ana Mendieta Collection and the University of Minnesota as well as
original essays by John Perreault, Michael Rush, Rachel Weiss, Lynn
Lukkas, Raquel Cecilia Mendieta, and Laura Wertheim Joseph. The
first book-length treatment of Mendieta's moving-image practice,
Covered in Time and History aims to locate her films centrally
within her larger oeuvre and at the forefront of the
multidisciplinary shifts that characterized visual arts practice
during the 1970s. Published in association with the Katherine E.
Nash Gallery at the University of Minnesota. Exhibition dates:
