Description

"Provocative book on the role of figurative artists (known as Nueva Presencia and Interioristas) in Mexico during 1960s. Their work demonstrated an interest in the human figure while they distanced themselves from the social realism of preceding generations. Good analysis of the era's sociopolitical scene and conflicting currents of nationalism and internationalism. Excellent bibliography and notes. Illustrated in b/w"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
