Repensar el conceptualismo: vanguardia, activismo y política en el arte latinoamericano (1960s-1980s)


Overview

Resumen Este volumen reúne ensayos críticos sobre el desarrollo del conceptualismo en América Latina entre las décadas de 1960 y 1980. En este contexto, varios artistas se comprometieron con los cambios sociales y pusieron en práctica formas alternativas de acción política, que se expresaron tanto a través del cuestionamiento de estructuras de poder como mediante la promoción de la solidaridad y la justicia entre distintas comunidades. El libro ofrece nuevas perspectivas sobre el conceptualismo latinoamericano, con ejemplos provenientes de Argentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, México, Perú y Uruguay. Destaca las contribuciones de artistas y pensadores locales, cuyas propuestas, en diálogo con otros contextos latinoamericanos, desafiaron los paradigmas del arte internacional y desarrollaron categorías propias que reflejaban la singularidad de sus prácticas. Entre los temas tratados se incluyen el surgimiento de perspectivas críticas para pensar el arte desde América Latina, la creación de nuevas terminologías, la recuperación de archivos, la defensa de la memoria histórica, las propuestas del tercer cine, así como el intercambio con programas de diplomacia cultural y el internacionalismo. Estos enfoques abordan el conceptualismo latinoamericano no solo como un movimiento estético, sino principalmente como un proceso de producción de conocimientos y saberes que integró la reflexión teórica con la práctica artística, respondiendo activamente a los debates políticos e intelectuales de su tiempo. * Abstract This volume is a compilation of critical essays on the development of conceptualism in Latin America between the 1960s and 1980s. In this context, a group of artists committed to social change put into practice alternative forms of political action that involved questioning power structures and promoting solidarity and justice among different communities. The book offers new perspectives on Latin American conceptualism, with examples from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Cuba, Mexico, Peru, and Uruguay. It highlights the contributions of local artists and thinkers whose proposals, in dialogue with other Latin American contexts, challenged the paradigms of international art and developed their own categories that reflected the uniqueness of their practices. Among the topics covered are the emergence of critical positions for examining art from a Latin American perspective, the creation of new terminologies, the recovery of archives, the defence of historical memory, the proposals of third cinema, as well as exchanges with cultural diplomacy programmes and internationalism. These approaches address Latin American conceptualism not only as an aesthetic movement but primarily as a process of knowledge production that integrates theoretical reflection with artistic practice, actively responding to the political and intellectual debates of its time.
