Cuestiones De Arte Contemporaneo
OLIVERAS ELENA, 2008
La obra de arte contemporánea ha pasado a ser un objeto para el pensamiento. El nuevo espectador tiene que mirar y pensar; debe trabajar para hacer una lectura artística. para que poco a poco las obras vayan mostrando las respuestas a sus enigmas. Queda atrás el tranquilo contemplador kantiano que se dejaba estar en la obra. que gozaba de su pura apariencia.Un arte basado en la categoría de la belleza. en el buen gusto o en lo aurático no parece ...

El Cuarto de Atras (Clasicos Contemporaneos Comentados) 1 review
Carmen Martin Gaite
Continental Book Company, 2001
A balance of Borges and Paglia
I read this in the original Spanish as an undergrad at Gettysburg College (in a class taught by a superb professor). It is a mix of the surreal, of meta-literary constructs and a feminist manifesto on the search for gynocentricity (and the Male obfuscation of this search). Be prepared to read and re-read this work. It doesn't allow an easy approach to the narrative but it is worth the effort.

Oficio De Tinieblas (Novelistas contemporaneos) (Novelistas contemporaneos)
Rosario Castellanos
Joaquin Mortiz, 2004
Oficio de tinieblas esta basada en un hecho historico: el levantamiento de los indios chamulas, en San Cristobal, en 1867. Este hecho culmino con la crucifixion de uno de estos indios al que proclamaron los amotinados como el Cristo Indigena. Por un momento, y por ese hecho, los chamulas se sintieron iguales a los blancos. Acerca de esta sublevacion casi no existen documentos. Los testimonios que pude recoger se resienten, como es logico, de ...

Cinco Horas Con Mario/ Five Years With Mario (Clasicos Contemporaneos Comentados)1 review
Miguel Delibes
Destino Ediciones, 2007
hysterically funny monologue of a petty Spanish woman
Delibes's Cinco horas con Mario (Five hours with Mario) is a stirring portrait of the situation of Spain, what effects the Civil War and Franco's dictatorship left on the minds of the people in Spain. And for those who are not very familiar with Spanish history, it is also a witty satire of the narrow-mindedness of the petty bourgeois. The Mario in the title is a typical representative of the ...

Charta, 1997
The pictures do the talking
This is a beautiful book which covers some of Kiefer's best work in painting as well as his photo-montage and book making activities. A small and eloquent tribute and forward leave adequate room for many full color reproductions (some double-paged) of paintings, large black and white photos taken by the artist, photos of installations and performances and reproductions of selections from his ...
