VIS 126FIndigenisms II: Contemporary Disseminations, Neo-Avantgarde to the Present
Lectures, readings, and discussions will expand the definitions of indigenism and Indianism toward many neo-avantgarde and contemporary strategies of art making that posit the Amerindian as inscription and imaginary—as key localizations from which new languages and art systems emerge. Examples of (neo) indigenisms from Peru, Mexico, the United States, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Ecuador, Venezuela, Guatemala, Colombia, and Brazil will be presented and reviewed.
