Book Synopsis Bridging the Gaps by : Danny Zborover
Download or read book Bridging the Gaps written by Danny Zborover and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2015-04-15 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridging the Gaps: Integrating Archaeology and History in Oaxaca, Mexico does just that: it bridges the gap between archaeology and history of the Precolumbian, Colonial, and Republican eras of the state of Oaxaca, Mexico, a cultural area encompassing several of the longest-enduring literate societies in the world. Fourteen case studies from an interdisciplinary group of archaeologists, anthropologists, ethnohistorians, and art historians consciously compare and contrast changes and continuities in material culture before and after the Spanish conquest, in Prehispanic and Colonial documents, and in oral traditions rooted in the present but reflecting upon the deep past. Contributors consider both indigenous and European perspectives while exposing and addressing the difficulties that arise from the application of this conjunctive approach. Inspired by the late Dr. Bruce E. Byland’s work in the Mixteca, which exemplified the union of archaeological and historical evidence and inspired new generations of scholars, Bridging the Gaps promotes the practice of integrative studies to explore the complex intersections between social organization and political alliances, religion and sacred landscape, ethnic identity and mobility, colonialism and resistance, and territoriality and economic resources.
Download or read book Homegrown written by Joe Nick Patoski and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2023-09-15 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Austin became the “live music capital of the world” and attracted tens of thousands of music fans, it had a vibrant local music scene that spanned late sixties psychedelic and avant-garde rock to early eighties punk. Venues such as the Vulcan Gas Company and the Armadillo World Headquarters hosted both innovative local musicians and big-name touring acts. Poster artists not only advertised the performances—they visually defined the music and culture of Austin during this pivotal period. Their posters promoted an alternative lifestyle that permeated the city and reflected Austin’s transformation from a sleepy university town into a veritable oasis of underground artistic and cultural activity in the state of Texas. This book presents a definitive survey of music poster art produced in Austin between 1967 and 1982. It vividly illustrates four distinct generations of posters—psychedelic art of the Vulcan Gas Company, early works from the Armadillo World Headquarters, an emerging variety of styles from the mid-1970s, and the radical visual aesthetic of punk—produced by such renowned artists as Gilbert Shelton, Jim Franklin, Kerry Awn, Micael Priest, Guy Juke, Ken Featherston, NOXX, and Danny Garrett. Setting the posters in context, Texas music and pop-culture authority Joe Nick Patoski details the history of music posters in Austin, and artist and poster art scholar Nels Jacobson explores the lives and techniques of the artists.

Book Synopsis The Decolonized Eye by : Sarita Echavez See
Download or read book The Decolonized Eye written by Sarita Echavez See and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the late 1980s to the present, artists of Filipino descent in the United States have produced a challenging and creative movement. In The Decolonized Eye, Sarita Echavez See shows how these artists have engaged with the complex aftermath of U.S. colonialism in the Philippines. Focusing on artists working in New York and California, See examines the overlapping artistic and aesthetic practices and concerns of filmmaker Angel Shaw, painter Manuel Ocampo, installation artist Paul Pfeiffer, comedian Rex Navarrete, performance artist Nicky Paraiso, and sculptor Reanne Estrada to explain the reasons for their strangely shadowy presence in American culture and scholarship. Offering an interpretation of their creations that accounts for their queer, decolonizing strategies of camp, mimesis, and humor, See reveals the conditions of possibility that constitute this contemporary archive. By analyzing art, performance, and visual culture, The Decolonized Eye illuminates the unexpected consequences of America's amnesia over its imperial history.

Download or read book Georganne Deen written by Georganne Deen and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work of Georganne Deen is a veritable landscape of trauma. Projected through a lens of adolescence-one that amplifies the fears, insecurities, and longings of the human psyche to monumental proportions-the work represents a tireless exploration of personal history, memory, family, and depression. Her primary backdrop is one of suburban pubescence, one that seems to originate and complete itself in a frequently-repeated bedroom motif (a faithful reproduction of the room she shared with her sister as a child). The sense of entrapment, depression, intimacy, and fantasy that imbues this girlish room nourishes a motley cast of characters-family members, pop icons, Greek gods, and the artist herself-who appear variously in human, animal, insect, or vegetable guise, or any combination therein. Deen's mother, one of the most common characters and the subject of her series "Mother Load," appears in one painting as a shriveled tree (in the act of severing from herself the limb that carries a baby carriage), and in others as a thin-teated dog (shedding from one teat a spotlight that illuminates two fighting girls), an enormous spider with a skull for a head, and a twelve-breasted woman spilling milk from buckets at her side-many with the same grimacing face, the same menacing cigarette in the mouth, and all suffused with the need and resentment that define an alcoholic mother's presence. In her paintings Georganne Deen dissects her most intimate family dramas. Rendered in a comic style, they mine emotionally charged materials and explore the dynamics of dysfunction with extraordinary honesty. Essays by Amy Gerstler and Michael Zakian.OUT OF PRINT.
