    LUCIO FONTANA: SPATIAL ENVIRONMENT (Ambiente Spaziale) On View from January 23 to April 21, 2019 Educator Resource Guide Grades 1 – 12 1 Dear Educator, Ambiente Spaziale (Spatial Environment) is a collaboration between El Museo del Barrio and The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s exhibition Lucio Fontana: On the Threshold [on view at the Met Breuer and curated by Estrellita B. Brodsky and Iria Candela]. Ambiente Spaziale merges the characteristics of painting, sculpture and architecture in order to go beyond the very notion of these artistic languages and create a space where visitors can walk through and experience. The installation highlights the universal themes of space [dialectics], dimensions and sculpture. Works of photography, prints, sculpture, and ceramics accompany paintings in this multi-media exhibition that highlights the iconic presence of the human form in various ways. We hope you will use the educational materials provided in this guide as a resource to support the different areas of study in your classroom and to help prepare your students for a visit to the museum.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Great Plains Quarterly by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. BOOK REVIEWS 67 little was to be found. The few books, articles, extracts from travel logs that existed offered casual observations of these horsemen rather than a focused, coherent study. Only Edward Larocque Tinker's seminal work, The Horsemen of the Americas and the Literature They Inspired, offered a scholarly incursion into the field. With Cowboys of the Americas, Richard W. Slatta adds to his already substantial work on the subject and does much to fill in the gaps left by Tinker, offering a coherent comparative study of all the horsemen of the Great Plains from Patagonia to Alberta and even Hawaii. Divided into thirteen chapters, this book ex­ plores specific aspects of the horsemen: histor­ ical origin, dress, work, range life, labor relations with employers, equestrian sporting events and other forms of entertainment, their role in dis­ placing the Amerindian populations, and their place in the emerging modem, urbanized world.

  • Simón Bolívar's Republic
    REVISTA DE SOCIOLOGIA E POLÍTICA V. 20, Nº 42: 21-37 JUN. 2012 SIMÓN BOLÍVAR’S REPUBLIC: A BULWARK AGAINST THE “TYRANNY” OF THE MAJORITY Aline Helg RESUMO Based on Bolívar’s speeches, decrees, and correspondence as well as on Gran Colombia’s constitutions and laws, this essay examines the tensions within Bolívar’s vision of Venezuela’s and New Granada’s society produced by his republican, yet authoritarian and hierarchical ideas, his concern for keeping the lower classes of African descent in check, and his denial of Indian agency. It shows that even in Peru, Bolívar’s main concern was to prevent the racial war and social disintegration that allegedly slaves and free Afro- descended people would bring to the newly independent nations. To prevent such an outcome, he advocated all along legal equality through the abolition of the colonial privileges and, since mid-1816, the abolition of slavery, but simultaneously the preservation of the monopole of power by the white creole elite. He secured the perpetuation of the socioracial hierarchy inherited from Spain by a two-edged citizenship: an active citizenship restricted to a tiny literate and skilled minority and an inactive citizenship for the immense majority of (mostly nonwhite) men. KEYWORDS: Simón Bolívar; independence; citizenship; nation building; race relations; slavery. I. INTRODUCTION “Estamos autorizados, pues, a creer que todos los hijos de la América española, de cualquier color o condición que sean, se profesan un afecto fraternal recíproco, que ninguna maquinación es capaz de alterar” (BOLÍVAR, 1947, v. 1, p. 181). “Nosotros somos el compuesto abominable de esos tigres cazadores que vinieron a la América a derramarle su sangre y a encastar con las víctimas antes de sacrificarlas, para mezclar después los frutos espúreos de estos enlaces con los frutos de esos esclavos arrancados del África.

    CHAPTER XII THE BATTLE OF CARABOBO AND THE CONSTITUTION OF 1821 OLIVAR now, thinking a fresh outbreak of war in Venezuela unlikely for the present, urged Valdés, commander of the army of B the south, to advance on Quito, and sent Sucre, the best of the republican generals, to command that army. Valdés had met with some reverses, and, by his arbitrary conduct, had made himself very unpopular in the south. Quito had not been included in the armistice, for it had its own independent President, Aymerich.' As for Guayaquil, if also was excluded, as Aymerich claimed that it belonged to Peru. Sucre's orders required him to go to Guayaquil, in order to get into touch there with the new revolutionary Government, which had already been approached by San Martin, who was anxious 'to unite it to Peru. Sucre's movements will be more conveniently recounted later. Bolivar reached Bogota on the 5th January 1821, whence, a few days later, he startd for the south. But he had only got to La Mesa, the first march out of the capital towards the Magdalena, when he received notice from La Torre of MoriIl's departure and his own accession to the chief command. The letter also I The Viceroy of Peru had practically taken over the administration of Quito and Guayaquil after the outbreak, which was suppressed in 1812.

    Irving Norman, Redwoods, and Refugees South of San Francisco about thirty miles, nestled between the forested hills and the wide Pacific, sits historic Half Moon Bay. The town retains a surprisingly rural nature today despite its relative proximity to San Francisco and Silicon Valley, which sprawls on the other side of the hills to the east. Visitors are drawn there by the beaches or the leg- endary waves at Mavericks that challenge intrepid surfers; by whale watching, as stately grays make their annual migration close to shore; by the October Pumpkin Festival, where stupendous specimens attest to the rich soil and the salubrious climate; or simply by the landscape's charms. Poet Robinson Jeffers, who made his home in a similar landscape farther to the south, outside Carmel, often wrote of nature's charms on the central California coast, where heavy with redwood\ the slopes drop seaward[ Headlong convexities of forest, drawn in together to the steep ravine.

La mayor parte de los acercamientos a este contexto han sido por la vía de la exaltación de esta región natural en la gesta independentista o en la llamada guerra civil del siglo XIX, contiendas que dieron paso a la estructuración institucional republicana hasta el presente. Otra vía transitada por los estudios realizados sobre los llanos, ha sido la de los estudios sociológicos sobre los hombres y mujeres del llano por aquello de su aporte a los procesos de “identidad” en Venezuela.

    GAUCHOS, LLANEROS Y CQWBOYS: UN APORTE A LA HISTORIA COMPARADA:i: Richard W. Slatta Nord, Carolina State Univetsity 1. Introducción Los caballos y los hombres de a caballo jugaron un rol determinante en la conquista de la civilización Amerindia por los españoles y se perpetuaron du- rante siglos como el objeto central de la historia ~atinoiimericana.A medida que los conquistadores y exploradores españoles se movilizaron hacia el nor- te de México en lo que es hoy día la región sudoeste de los Estados Unidos, trajeron consigo sus valores, prácticas y terminologías ecuestres. Considerando que estos intrépidos jinetes se desparramaron a lo largo y a lo ancho de las Américas, Edward Larocque Tinker escribió que "hay en este continente grandes grupos de hombres que se han convertido en una tradición en sus propios países y, a pesar de barreras lingüísticas y diferencias de sangre son tan parecidosentre sí como los coches modelo Ford T. Todos experimen- taron los mismos problemas ... y devinieron símbolos de temeridad, virilidad, * Apoyo financiero de la Fundación Tinker, de Nueva York, me permitió viajar a Caracas y recopilar información sobre los Ilaneros. Además tuve el beneficio de unas con- versaciones con Miguel lzard y Susan Berglund y la cooperación de la Fundación John Boulton en Caracas. El trabajo fue traducido del Inglés por Eduardo Saguier y Cristina Mendilaharazu. patriotismo y fanática independencia; cada uno inspiró una literatura pinto- resca".' Tinker sobreestimó las semejanzas entre los diversos jinetes, pero sus se- mejanzas y contrastes nos ofrecen un importante y fascinante tópico para la historia comparada. Estudios comparativos sobre fronteras representan un área significativa de la pesquisa histórica, pero mucho trabajo teórico y em- pírico resta por hacer.
