100 Artistas Latinoamericanos reúne una selección de los mejores artistas latinoamericanos en activo, propuestos a partir de la consulta y debate de un comité de expertos en arte latinoamericano. El libro se inicia con unos textos de introduccion a cargo de Rosa Olivares, Ticio Escobar, Gerardo Mosquera, Andrea Giunta e Irma Arestizabal, que plantean la situacion del arte desde Latinoamerica argumentandolo a traves de distintas perspectivas: el propio concepto geografico, las dinamicas centro-periferia, la tradicion, el presente y el futuro, la internacionalizacion, encauzando asi el sentido de esta reunion de artistas tan heterogenea y con un denominador comun que, como se comprueba en las paginas siguientes, no es mas aglutinador que diferenciador. La seleccion de los 100 artistas se presenta siguiendo un orden alfabetico. Cada artista cuenta con cuatro paginas en las que podemos encontrar un texto (español/ingles) de analisis sobre su obra y trayectoria, escrito por un grupo de especialistas en arte contemporaneo, y una amplia seleccion de imagenes que reflejan la evolucion de su produccion artistica. Un apendice final con los datos biograficos mas relevantes de cada artista completa y cierra el volumen.

The book is divided into three major sections - theory, invention, and design. Van Eck analyzes how rhetoric informed artistic practice, theory, and perception in early modern Europe. This is the first full-length study to look at the issue of visual persuasion in both ...
