Understanding the Latinx Experience - Developmental and Contextual Influences (Hardcover): Vasti Torres, Ebelia Hernandez,... Understanding the Latinx Experience - Developmental and Contextual Influences (Hardcover)

The Latino presence continues to grow in traditional population enclaves and has tripled in areas that are not traditionally associated with this pan-ethnic group. The dramatic growth of this population in the U.S. requires a considerably deeper understanding of individuals that share this multifaceted identity. This timely book synthesizes new research and its implications for practice that is critical for professionals working with Latinos in educational and counseling contexts. The authors provide insight into identity development, environmental influences, and how these factors influence persistence in higher education. By using a synthesis approach to organize multiple studies around how being Latinx influences the experiences of college students and beyond, the authors offer a holistic view of the Latino population. Each chapter uses mixed method data points to highlight the experiences of this growing population and provide helpful insights for those who work with Latinx individuals within higher education and community settings. The new Lifespan Model of Latinx Ethnic Identity Development constitutes a framework to consider the development and tensions experienced by Latinos as they engage with the various cultures represented within U.S. society. The studies presented in this book provide an evidence-based understanding how environmental differences may produce differing levels of development for college students and how change in environments produce reflective refinement of adult Latinx identity. Practitioners will learn about practices that help Latinx college students. Faculty and researchers will gain new understandings of the Latinx experience, and discover a starting point for further reflection and investigation.

With motion and machines as its most treasured tropes, Futurism was founded in 1909 by Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, along with painters Giacomo Balla, Umberto Boccioni, Carlo Carra, and Gino Severini. With affiliate painters, sculptors, designers, architects, and writers, the group sought to subsume the dusty establishment into a new age of sleek, strong, purified modernity. Futurism's place in art history is as ambivalent as it is important. The movement pioneered revolutionary methods to convey movement, light, and speed, but sparks controversy in its glorification of war and fascist politics. Their frenzied, almost furious, canvases, are as remarkable for their macho aggression as they are for their radical experimentation with brushstrokes, texture, and color in the quest to record an object moving through space. With key examples from the Futurists' prolific output and leading practitioners, this book introduces the movement that spat vitriol at all -isms of the past and, in so doing, created an -ism of their own. About the series Born back in 1985, the Basic Art Series has evolved into the best-selling art book collection ever published. Each book in TASCHEN's Basic Art History series features: approximately 100 color illustrations with explanatory captions a detailed, illustrated introduction a selection of the most important works of the epoch, each presented on a two-page spread with a full-page image and accompanying interpretation, as well as a portrait and brief biography of the artist

In the first exhibition highlight of the year, three outstanding artists - Wilhelm Lehmbruck, Georg Kolbe, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe - are being brought together for the first time at Haus Lange in Krefeld. Figurative sculpture, as repeatedly integrated into designs and buildings by the architect Mies van der Rohe, is thus placed in direct dialog with the building, the design, and the gardens of Haus Lange. The background for the interplay between architecture and sculpture is the natural-philosophical climate, which, in the early twentieth century, influenced a wide range of disciplines. On display will be roughly twenty-five sculptures by Lehmbruck and Kolbe as part of the organic body of Haus Lange.

Art galleries have been, and continue to be, enormously influential in aesthetic discourse. They have launched the world's most celebrated artists and nurtured its key movements. Where would Pop Art be without Leo Castelli? The New York School without the Guggenheim Jeune? And what would Fluxus have become without Rena Block's commitment? "International Art Galleries" is a star-studded, photo-filled look at the art world's star-makers, the first book to examine the modern gallery phenomenon, offering over 75 profiles of galleries from around the world, and portraits of their key players arranged by decade. American readers will recognize Art of This Century, Betty Parsons, Leo Castelli, Marian Goodman, Paula Cooper, American Fine Arts, Co., Gagosian, Deitch Projects (where Jeffrey Deitch is shown working nonchalantly with a naked model splayed across his desk, her butt to the camera), Gavin Brown's Enterprise and the Project. Other international players range from Galerie Iris Clert in Paris to Tomio Koyama in Tokyo and kurimanzutto in Mexico City. Lavishly illustrated throughout with photographs of artists, gallerists, installations and events, this comprehensive history of the modern gallery system offers an intriguing and engaging angle on the development of art since 1945.
