Women Photographers and Mexican Modernity : Framing the Twentieth Century Hardback
Edited by Julia R. (Florida Atlantic University, USA) Brown, Radmila Stefkova, Tamara R. (Pacific Lutheran University, USA) Williams
Part of the Routledge Research in Gender and Art series
Hardback
Description
The photographers discussed in this book probe the most contentious aspects of social organization in Mexico, questioning what it means to belong, to be Mexican, to experience modernity, and to create art as a culturally, politically, or racially marginalized person. By choosing human subjects, spaces, and aesthetics excluded from the Lettered City, each of the photographers discussed in this volume produces a corpus of art that contests dominant narratives of social and cultural modernization in Mexico.
Taken together, their work represents diverging and diverse notions of what is meant by Mexican modernity. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, history of photography, women’s studies, and Mexican studies.
