Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All societies around the world and through time value beauty highly. Tracing the evolutions of the Colombian standards of beauty since 1845, Michael Edward Stanfield explores their significance to and symbiotic relationship with violence and inequality in the country. Arguing that beauty holds not only social power but also economic and political power, he positions it as a pacific and inclusive influence in a country “ripped apart by violence, private armies, seizures of land, and abuse of governmental authority, one hoping that female beauty could save it from the ravages of the male beast.” One specific means of obscuring those harsh realities is the beauty pageant, of which Colombia has over 300 per year. Stanfield investigates the ways in which these pageants reveal the effects of European modernity and notions of ethnicity on Colombian women, and how beauty for Colombians has become an external representation of order and morality that can counter the pathological effects of violence, inequality, and exclusion in their country.

Book excerpt: ""The amount sounds marvellous: 3500 years of Colombian art! Do we really have so much art to review? So much to show? This new book by Villegas Editores indicates so." "Through a chronological synthesis, for the first time in a single volume, the artistic production is grouped together to what today is Colombian territory. The book presents the early manifestations of pre-Columbian art until and throughout the Twentieth Century." "This recount, supported by the collections from the Gold Museum and the Art Collection, both part of the Central Bank of Colombia, and complemented by other important public collections, focuses on the periods starting from the Conquest, on painting and sculpture. It is the author's opinion - Santiago Londono Velez - that the rest of the material in the book deserves a separate treatment."--Rabat de la jaquette

Download or read book The Baroque World of Fernando Botero written by John Sillevis and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colombian-born Fernando Botero (b. 1932) is a painter, sculptor, and draftsman renowned for his extravagantly rounded figures combining the polish and excess of Spanish colonial baroque with the social realism of the Mexican muralists. Their humorous exaggeration belies the more serious content of Botero’s work—commentary on colonialism, political instability in Latin America, and the vernacular artistic traditions of the region, as well as European art history. Accompanying the artist’s first American retrospective in over thirty years, The Baroque World of Fernando Botero is the most extensive study of his life and work to date. Drawn exclusively from Botero’s private collection, the 100 works featured in this book, including previously unpublished paintings and drawings, represent the full scope of his oeuvre from a uniquely personal perspective. Many of these—portraits of friends and family members and remembered scenes—have remained in the artist’s possession since their creation, while others he has bought back over the years as markers of significant developments in his career. Three essays examine the artist’s creative life, from the aesthetic environment in which Botero developed his unique style to his catalyzing influence on the Colombian art world of the 1960s and 70s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colombia is a country located in South America, bordered by Venezuela, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador, and Panama. It has a diverse landscape that includes the Andes mountains, the Amazon rainforest, and the Caribbean coast. The country's official language is Spanish, and its population is diverse, with indigenous peoples, Afro-Colombians, and people of European descent making up significant portions. Despite its natural beauty and rich heritage, Colombia has faced challenges in the past, including a long-standing armed conflict involving illegal armed groups, drug trafficking, and corruption. However, in recent years, Colombia has made significant progress in improving security and economic stability. The country has also become a tourism hotspot, with millions of visitors each year drawn to its unique culture, outstanding music scene, and stunning landscapes. Today, Colombia is regarded as one of the most exciting and promising destinations in Latin America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume’s chief aim is to bring together, in an English-language source, the principal histories and narratives of some of the most significant academies and national schools of art in South America, Mexico, and the Caribbean, from the late 18th to the early 20th centuries. The book highlights not only issues shared by Latin American academies of art but also those that differentiate them from their European counterparts. Authors examine issues including statutes, the influence of workshops and guilds, the importance of patronage, discourses of race and ethnicity in visual pedagogy, and European models versus the quest for national schools. It also offers first-time English translations of many foundational documents from several significant academies and schools. This book will be of interest to scholars in art history, Latin American and Hispanic studies, and modern visual cultures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Afro-Colombian Hip-Hop: Globalization, Transcultural Music, and Ethnic Identities, by Christopher Dennis, explores the impact that globalization and the transnational spread of U.S. popular culture--specifically hip-hop and rap--are having on the social identities of younger generations of black Colombians. Along with addressing why and how hip-hop has migrated so effectively to Colombia's black communities, Dennis introduces readers to some of the country's most renowned Afro-Colombian hip-hop artists, their musical innovations, and production and distribution practices. Above all, Dennis demonstrates how, through a mode of transculturation, today's young artists are transforming U.S. hip-hop into a more autonomous art form used for articulating oppositional social and political critiques, reworking ethnic identities, and actively contributing to the reimagining of the Colombian nation. Afro-Colombian Hip-Hop uncovers ways in which young Afro-Colombian performers are attempting to use hip-hop and digital media to bring the perspectives, histories, and expressive forms of their marginalized communities into national and international public consciousness.

Download or read book Modernity and Colombian Identity in the Music of Carlos Vives y La Provincia written by Manuel Sevilla and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-07-24 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the late 1980s and early 1990s, a great number of TV shows and music acts blossomed in Colombia, all of which resorted to regional identity as the narrative core for a renewed idea of national identity. Among them was “Clasicos de la provincial,” an album by Colombian singer Carlos Vives and his band La Provincia (1993), which marked the beginning of a successful career that has spanned nearly three decades. Vives´s work not only earned much deserved recognition in the musical industry from the beginning, but most importantly, has come to be renowned as a landmark in the cultural history of Colombia. This book is the first in-depth analysis focused on the creation and production process of Vives´s work, its main musical and literary features, and its influence on other musicians and in the construction of a narrative about national identity that is still relevant today. More than fifty interviews with Vives and members of the band, musicians, journalists, radio programmers, musical producers, and other key players of the process, together with an extensive review of hundreds of documents, are the sources for this book, which earned its authors a national award in Colombia (2015).
