Book Description
«He escrito estos ensayos a lo largo de casi veinte años, veinte años en los que he presenciado el nacimiento y el desarrollo de una historia del arte feminista. Cuando en 1970 empecé a trabajar en «¿Por qué no ha habido grandes mujeres artistas?», la historia del arte feminista no existía: como cualquier otra forma de discurso histórico, había que construirla.» Así comienza Mujeres, arte y poder y otros ensayos, el recopilatorio en el que la gran historiadora del arte Linda Nochlin presenta siete artículos sobre mujeres artistas y la figura femenina en la historia del arte, cuya influencia fue determinante para el desarrollo posterior de la crítica del arte feminista y los estudios de género. Los artículos aquí reunidos son: «Mujeres, arte y poder» (1988), «La nodriza de Morisot: la noción del trabajo y el ocio en la pintura impresionista» (1988), «Perdida y Encontrada: otra vez la mujer caída» (1978), «Algunas pintoras realistas» (1974), «Florine Stettheimer: el Rococó subversivo» (1980), «Erotismo e imaginería femenina en el arte decimonónico» (1972), y «¿Por qué no ha habido grandes mujeres artistas?» (1971). Mujeres, arte y poder y otros ensayos revela la amplia perspectiva y conocimiento del trabajo pionero de Nochlin y nos invita a interpretar la historia del arte feminista como una práctica transgresora contra el establishment que pone en tela de juicio muchos de los principales preceptos de la disciplina todavía vigentes en la actualidad.

Book Description
"This book discusses how some works of art produced in Latin America in the sixties, seventies, and eighties forged a different understanding of the female body, understood as space for the expression of a dissident subjectivity in relation to socially normalized places. Representations of art and of feminist activism interrogated the disciplining of the female body that entails as well the disciplining of the male body. Before a history of highly regulated artistic representations-regardless of the occasional exceptions a historian might point out-images erupted that questioned the social and institutional naturalization of the feminine and the masculine"--

Book Description
The Hebrew Bible and art reside at the core of this book, which analyzes the iconographic representation of several women of the Bible. The contributors consider the ways in which the biblical texts regarding these women had been read and understood throughout time and the means by which they were represented. Each study also explores the different values associated with these representations according to the problems, worries and concerns of each period. Drawing upon disciplines such as theology, philology or history of art, the essays within this volume provide a cross-sectional, plural and rich approach. In focusing upon iconographic representation, numerous visual cultures of the last millennium are explored, and special emphasis is placed upon several integral biblical women such as Bathsheba, Moses' mother, the Pharaoh's Daughter, Ruth, Naomi and Deborah, and their lasting influence upon Western art and culture. This book pursues an understanding of the history of the transmission and reception of the Bible in general, and of the women of the Old Testament in particular.

Book Description
The Art of Transition addresses the problems defined by writers and artists during the postdictatorship years in Argentina and Chile, years in which both countries aggressively adopted neoliberal market-driven economies. Delving into the conflicting efforts of intellectuals to name and speak to what is real, Francine Masiello interprets the culture of this period as an art of transition, referring to both the political transition to democracy and the formal strategies of wrestling with this change that are found in the aesthetic realm. Masiello views representation as both a political and artistic device, concerned with the tensions between truth and lies, experience and language, and intellectuals and the marginal subjects they study and claim to defend. These often contentious negotiations, she argues, are most provocatively displayed through the spectacle of difference, which constantly crosses the literary stage, the market, and the North/South divide. While forcefully defending the ability of literature and art to advance ethical positions and to foster a critical view of neoliberalism, Masiello especially shows how issues of gender and sexuality function as integrating threads throughout this cultural project. Through discussions of visual art as well as literary work by prominent novelists and poets, Masiello sketches a broad landscape of vivid intellectual debate in the Southern Cone of Latin America. The Art of Transition will interest Latin Americanists,literary and political theorists, art critics and historians, and those involved with the study of postmodernism and globalization.
