Diagramming modernity: books and graphic design in Latin America, 1920-1940

Door

Uittreksel

"This impressive publication offers the first comprehensive panorama of illustrated books in Latin American between the 1920s and 1940s, a period characterized by the rapid modernization of the region. The books reproduced here encapsulate this transformative era, expressing and embodying emergent national and continental narratives in Latin American countries. Diagramming Modernity reproduces over one thousand illustrated first editions, analyzing the profusion of cultural narratives they contain. In addition to showcasing relatively unknown work by many renowned artists, the publication also boasts an extensive repertoire of avant-garde artists largely forgotten until today. Chapters are dedicated to countries and to specific themes such as 'word–image', 'visual representations of language', 'pre-Columbian and ancestral traits', and 'political and social graphic design'. Authors Rodrigo Gutiérrez Viñuales and Riccardo Boglione, together with Juan Manuel Bonet, Mariana Garone Gravier and Dafne Cruz Porchini study these topics in depth through their extensive research."-- On back of cover.
