Summary:
Extensively illustrated and based on the most up-to-date research, Contemporary Art Mexico highlights 115 of the most prominent players, including 72 artists and 43 personalities and institutions. Featured artists, who have been selected for their relevance to local practice, their engagement with their peers and their international profiles, include such older-generation figures as Graciela Iturbide and Eduardo Terrazas; influential figures from the 1990s such as Gabriel Orozco, Francis Alÿs, Damián Ortega and Melanie Smith; and such emerging talents as Edgardo Aragón, Iñaki Bonillas, Adriana Lara and Marco Rountree Cruz. Leading galleries, curators, collectors and other key cultural figures are also featured. Critical essays by María Minera, Daniel Garza Usabiaga and Tanya Barson provide a carefully crafted background against which contemporary developments can be both appreciated and understood.
