Description

Explore the complex history of abstract art in Latin America through this edited volume from Routledge. Covering the period after 1945, this book examines how abstraction grew in popularity across the Americas during the postwar era. It details how artists used these movements to claim a sense of modernity and assert Latin America's role in the global art landscape, challenging the dominance Europe held before World War II. While traditional art history has often focused on geometric abstraction in countries like Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela, this research aims to expand the map. The text provides a broader perspective by considering various movements, including gestural abstraction, to offer a more complete view of the region. This volume is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in art history, postwar movements, and the evolving identity of Latin American art.

Key Features

Provides a comprehensive examination of abstract art history across Latin America from 1945 onwards.

Analyzes how postwar abstraction served as a tool for expressing modernity and regional identity.

Covers both gestural and geometric abstraction to provide a balanced historical perspective.

Expands on existing scholarship by looking beyond the well-documented geometric movements in Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela.
