Bringing together sixty-five primary documents vital to
understanding the history of art in Latin America since 1900,
Patrick Frank shows how modern art developed in Latin America in
this important new work complementing his previous book,
Twentieth-Century Art of Latin America, Revised and Expanded
Edition. Besides autobiographies, manifestos, interviews, and
artists' statements, the editor has assembled material from videos,
blogs, handwritten notebooks, flyers, lectures, and even an
after-dinner speech. As the title suggests, many of the texts have
a polemical or argumentative cast. In these documents, many of
which appear in English for the first time, the artists themselves
describe what they hope to accomplish and what they see as
obstacles. Designed to show how modern art developed in Latin
America, the documents begin with early modern expressions in the
early twentieth century, then proceed through the avant-garde of
the 1920s, the architectural boom of midcentury, and the Cold War
years, and finally conclude with the postmodern artists in the new
century.
