A propos de cet article

4to. 450 pp. Very Good. Hard Cover. Beige cloth covered boards. Dust Jacket Very Good, with minor shelf wear. Original owner's name on first page. Color and B&W plates throughout. Heavy volume, additional shipping fee may apply.ISBN: 9780292791183.FotoFest 1992, a major festival of international photography in Houston, brought Latin American photography into focus for a wide public audience. Offering a diverse selection of photographers, countries, artistic movements, and subject matter, the shows revealed a photographic tradition rich in both history and creativity. Drawing from the more than 1,000 images exhibited by FotoFest, this book documents the work of fifty photographers from ten countries. The photographs range from the opening of the Brazilian frontier in the 1880s to documentary images from El Salvador's 1980-1992 civil war to works of specifically aesthetic and experimental intent. Many of the photographs appear here in print for the first time. Wendy Watriss's opening essay provides the curatorial overview for the book in her essay. Lois Parkinson Zamora examines some of the roots of visual imagery in Latin American cultures. An essay by Boris Kossoy addresses the history of Latin American photography in the nineteenth century, delving into the social iconography that evolved from the mingling of indigenous and European traditions. Fernando Castro covers the contemporary scene and the debate over "artistic" versus documentary work. An extensive bibliography by Marta Sanchez Philippe and artist biographies conclude the book.Contents: Acknowledgments Image and Memory: Photography from Latin America, 1866-1994 (Wendy Watriss) Photography in Nineteenth-Century Latin America: The European Experience and the Exotic Experience (Boris Kossoy) Crossover Dreams: Remarks On Contemporary Latin American Photography (Fernando Castro) PLATES Uruguay: The War of the Triple Alliance, 1865-1870 Brazil: The Opening of a Frontier, 1880-1910 Colombia: Medellin, the New City, 1897-1946 Guatemala: The Colonial Legacy, Religious Photographs, 1880-1920 Peru: Modernity in the Southern Andes: Peruvian Photography, 1908-1930 Ecuador: Old and New, 1925-1986 Argentina: A Crossing of Cultures: Four Women in Argentina, 1937-1968 Mexico: Witnesses of Time, 1987-1991: Flor Garduno Guatemala: The Imprint of Time, Nupcias de Soledad: Luis Gonzalez Palma El Salvador: In the Eye of the Beholder, The War in El Salvador, 1980-1992 Argentina and Uruguay: The Modern Landscape, 1981-1991 Brazil: Color from Brazil Brazil: Mario Cravo Neto Colombia: On the Edge, 1970-1994 Venezuela: New Visions, 1987-1990 Quetzalcoatl's Mirror: Reflections on the Photographic Image in Latin America (Lois Parkinson Zamora) Bibliography (Marta Sanchez Philippe) Artist Biographies Contributor Biographies Lenders List Index.…
