Rodrigo Alonso,Cornelia Huth,Miguel Angel Lopez,Tobias Peper,Nelly Richard
This publication addresses performative artistic strategies as a lived practice of resistance in Latin American countries such as Argentina, Brazil and Chile, from the 1960s on. At its core are those artists who have contested repressive political systems, often jeopardizing their own lives: for example, 3Nos3, Elias Adasme, Sonia Andrade, Martha Araujo, Lenora de Barros, Paulo Bruscky, Colectivo Acciones de Arte, Luis Camnitzer, Graciela Carnevale, Antonio Caro, Antonio Dias, Eugenio Dittborn, Leon Ferrari, Nicolas Franco, Anna Bella Geiger, Grupo de Arte Callejero, Graciela Gutierrez Marx, Voluspa Jarpa, Gastao de Magalhaes, Anna Maria Maiolino, Antonio Manuel, Cildo Meireles, Pedro Reyes, Lotty Rosenfeld, Yeguas del Apocalipsis, Horacio Zabala and Sergio Zevallos. Essays discuss topics such as gender issues, Chile’s dictatorship and mail art.
