Casta Painting New Images of Race in Eighteenth-Century Mexico Ilona Katzew The pictorial genre known as casta painting is one of the most compelling forms of artistic expression from colonial Mexico. Created as sets of consecutive images, the works portray racial mixing among the main groups that inhabited the colony: Indians, Spaniards, and Africans. In this beautifully illustrated book, Ilona Katzew places casta paintings in their social and historical context, showing for the first time the ways in which the meanings of the paintings changed along with shifting colonial politics. The book examines how casta painting developed art historically, why race became the subject of a pictorial genre that spanned an entire century, who commissioned and collected the works, and what meanings the works held for contemporary audiences. Drawing on a range of previously unpublished archival and visual material, Katzew sheds new light on racial dynamics of eighteenthcentury Mexico and on the construction of identity and self-image in the colonial world. 2004 256 pp. 100 b/w + 100 color illus. Cloth ISBN 10241-0 $60.00 Inverted Utopias Phone: 1-800-405-1619 Fax: 1-800-406-9145 Avant-Garde Art in Latin America Mari Carmen Ramírez New and Héctor Olea et al. In the twentieth century, avant-garde artists from Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean created extraordinary and highly innovative paintings, sculptures, assemblages, mixed-media works, and installations. This innovative book presents more than 250 works by some seventy of these artists (including Gego, Joaquín Torres- García, Xul Solar, and José Clemente Orozco) and artists’ groups, along with interpretive essays by leading authorities and newly translated manifestoes and other theoretical documents written by the artists. Together the images and texts showcase the astonishing artistic achievements of the Latin American avant-garde. As an insightful source for new ideas about the nature and function of modern art, Inverted Utopias is an essential book that will become a classic text in the field.

The book includes some fifty seminal essays and documents—including statements, interviews, and manifestoes by artists —that encompass the broad diversity of this emerging field. Many of these materials are difficult to access and some are translated here for the first time. Together the selections explore the breadth and depth of Latin American modern art as well as its distinctive evolution apart from American and European art history. 2004 288 pp. Paper ISBN 10255-0 $22.95 Portrait of Gego (photo by Paolo Gasparini) Gego The Complete Works, 1955–1990 New Iris Peruga et al. With a foreword by Glenn D. Lowry The German-born Venezuelan artist known as Gego (1912–1994) created spare and unequivocally abstract drawings, prints, three-dimensional works, hanging net pieces, and wire constructions of extraordinary quality. Although championed early in her career by Alfred Barr, founder of MoMA, Gego has remained little known outside of Latin America. This exquisitely designed and produced book—presented in both Spanish and English—features Gego’s complete oeuvre, which includes over four hundred prints and drawings as well as three-dimensional works.

He discusses the upheavals in Mexico (1910–1940), in Cuba (1959–1989), and in Nicaragua (1979–1990) and assesses their legacies, demonstrating how the revolutions’ consequences reverberated in arts and cultures far beyond their own borders. 2002 240 pp. 130 b/w + 65 color illus.
