Softbound / Tapa blanda. 25 x 17 cm ------- 152 pages. ******************** "" Rubio's tongue-in-cheek comics and artworks bridge high culture with kitsch while exploring constructions of mixed-race identityThrough her work, Mexican artist Wendy Cabrera Rubio (born 1993) investigates the temporal and narrative traces of Mexican identity, a history marked by the creation of a nationalism whose fixation on an Indigenous past wanders into the present. She is part of a generation of artists revisiting the history of Mexican arts and crafts with a multidisciplinary and pedagogical approach. Her practice explores the production and distribution of images; using strategies such as appropriation and performance, Rubio condenses arts and crafts, history and storytelling. This book focuses on the construction of mestizaje (meaning "mixed race") and the differences between a "popular" art and a "cultured" art. "" ***********************.
