Cover description: Black and white drawing of a woman wearing a long, sleeveless dress, standing upright, her arms slightly outstretched. She rests each of her hands on the shoulders of two small boys, one of whom leans on a crutch. A third, smaller boy stands close to her legs. Above the illustration, to the left, the words “Embodied Archive” are printed in green, with the words “Disability in Post-Revolutionary Mexican Cultural Production” printed in black, slightly to the right. Below the illustration, the name “Susan Antebi” is printed in white on a red background. For Sergio and Camilo Acknowledgments h It occurs to me in writing these pages that the genre of “acknowledgments” tends to create a strange taxonomy of persons, placing each in a singular cat- egory, when in fact there are many who fit into more than one role, as friends, colleagues, interlocutors, supporters, scholars of one or several disciplines, and those who hail from one or several locations. In ways far beyond this acknowledgment taxonomy, I am grateful to everyone who has knowingly or unknowingly shaped this book. Contingency, the idea that one thing, such as an event, a feeling, or a sense of identity, depends on outside factors or cir- cumstances, appears frequently in the pages to come. Yet the gratitude I wish to express here is not contingent on the publication of my book; rather, this project offers me a serendipitous excuse to offer my thanks. I have been fortunate to work with generous colleagues at the University of Toronto, including my many fellow travelers in the Department of Span- ish and Portuguese and in the Latin American Studies Program, who have contributed to a vibrant academic environment. I especially wish to thank Rosa Sarabia, Eva-Lynn Jagoe, Néstor Rodríguez, Victor Rivas, Sanda Mun- jic, Robert Davidson, Stephen Rupp, Yolanda Iglesias, Ricardo Sternberg, Josiah Blackmore, Mariana Mota Prado, Kevin Coleman, Anne-Emanuelle Birn, Luis van Isschot, Melanie Newton, Donald Kingsbury, Bernardo Gar- cía Domínguez, and Juan Marsiaj. Portions of this research were presented in earlier forms to colleagues in disability studies, and I am particularly grate- ful to Tanya Titchkosky, Rod Michalko, and Anne McGuire for facilitating space and offering knowledgeable feedback on my work in progress. I also thank my colleagues in the Racial Technologies Working Group, Tamara Walker, Valentina Napolitano, Luisa Schwartzman, Antonio Torres- Ruiz, Nae Hanashiro Ávila, and Ted Sammons, who provided invaluable insight viii • Acknowledgments on an earlier draft of chapter 1, as well as a welcoming space in which to share work in progress. Thanks are due as well to participants in the Tepoztlán Institute for Transnational History of the Americas, of 2016, who produc- tively engaged with an earlier version of a portion of the manuscript. I am immensely grateful to Salvador Alanis and Ximena Berecochea, codirectors of the Toronto- based Institute for Creative Exchange (ICE), for their inno- vative work in the creation and facilitation of artistic and cultural initiatives, and particularly for the opportunity to participate along with Mario Bellatin and Daniel Canty in the workshop Art and Orthopedics, which allowed me to work through some of the concepts presented in this book. I extend my appreciation to Héctor Domínguez Ruvalcaba, Ana Ugarte, Kristina Mitch- ell, Carolyn Fornoff, Ryan Prout, and their colleagues for additional opportu- nities to present and improve on versions of this work in various venues over a number of years. Disability studies is sometimes defined as a field, yet it tends to operate as a multiplicity of shifting and partially entangled fields, with dynamic sites of encounter between varied disciplines and forms of knowledge. Approaching disability studies through literature, and more specifically through Mexican literary and cultural studies, has allowed me to learn from many generous col- leagues, each of whom engages the work of disability studies from a uniquely informed angle. I am indebted to Beth Jörgensen, Susanne Hartwig, Sander Gilman, Susan Schweik, Rachel Adams, Petra Kuppers, Nirmala Erevelles, Robert McRuer, Encarnación Juárez Almendros, Jay Dolmage, Julie Avril Minich, Eunjung Kim, and Benjamin Fraser for their perceptive readings and commitment to a dynamic academic community that has sustained me in many ways over the years. I wish to express my appreciation to David Mitchell and Sharon Snyder, Corporealities series editors, for their generous enthusiasm for this book. It has been a privilege to work with them recently, and to learn from them through their many projects. As a starstruck reader of Narrative Prosthesis, I continue to recognize the ways that their evolving research has influenced my approach to disability studies. I also deeply appre- ciate the immensely generous efforts of the two anonymous readers of the book manuscript, who offered both encouragement and productive criticism that enabled me to improve the work. The research and writing of this book, along with some other comple- mentary projects, have been enriched by conferences and other exchanges

Quantity/ Extent 32 linear feet Language of Materials Spanish English Biographical Note Lola Álvarez Bravo was born Dolores Martínez de Anda in 1903 in Lagos de Moreno, a small city in Jalisco on Mexico's Pacific coast. She moved to Mexico City as a young child, after her mother left the family under mysterious circumstances. Her father died when she was a young teenager, and she was then sent to live with the family of her half brother. It was here that she met the young Manuel Alvarez Bravo, a neighbor. They married in 1925 and moved to Oaxaca where Manuel was an accountant for the federal government. Manuel had taken up photography as an adolescent; he taught Lola and they took pictures together in Oaxaca. Manuel also taught Lola how to develop film and make prints in the darkroom.

  • A Promenade Trough the Visual Arts in Carlos Monsivais Collection
    A Promenade Trough the Visual Arts in Carlos Monsivais Collection So many books have been written, all over the world and throughout all ages about collecting, and every time one has access to a collection, all the alarms go off and emotions rise up, a new and different emotion this time. And if one is granted access to it, the pleasure has no comparison: with every work one starts to understand the collector’s interests, their train of thought, their affections and their tastes. When that collector is Carlos Monsiváis, who collected a little bit of everything (that is not right, actually it was a lot of everything), and thanks to work done over the years by the Museo del Estanquillo, we are now very aware of what he was interested in terms of visual art in the 20th Century (specially in painting, illustration, engraving, photography). It is only natural that some of the pieces here —not many— have been seen elsewhere, in other exhibitions, when they were part of the main theme; this time, however, it is a different setting: we are just taking a stroll… cruising around to appreciate their artistic qualities, with no specific theme. This days it is unusual, given that we are so used to looking for an overarching “theme” in every exhibition. It is not the case here. Here we are invited to partake, along with Carlos, in the pleasures of color, texture, styles and artistic schools. We’ll find landscapes, portraits, dance scenes, streetscapes, playful scenes. All executed in the most diverse techniques and styles by the foremost mexican artist of the 20th Century, and some of the 21st as well.

  • Breaching Walls (Real and Imaginary): Arte Hispano-Americano [Latin American Art], 1000 C.E
    Breaching Walls (Real and Imaginary): Arte Hispano-Americano [Latin American Art], 1000 C.E. to 2017 C.E. A Guide to the Exhibition by Noel Dorsey Vernon A STUDENT EXHIBITION GUIDE FOR EDUCATIONAL USE ONLY -- 11/12/17 (NDV) Author's Note This guide supports the art exhibition “Breaching Walls (Real and Imaginary)” held at Skyline Community College in November 2017, celebrating Latino Heritage Month. Many thanks to the administration and faculty of Skyline College for hosting and supporting it. Many thanks also to Arthur Takayama, Lorenzo Hernández and Cristina Hernández for organizing this exhibition. I am indebted to all of them for agreeing that a gallery guide might be of use and permitting me to author it. Thanks also to Professor Carlos Ugalde for taking the time to author "Comments on Art by Professor Carlos Ugalde for Lorenzo Hernández " which is included in this Exhibition Guide. My own background in Mexican and Hispano-American history is far less than was necessary to take on this project, so I spent a lot of time reading, looking at art, listening and asking questions. I had studied the history of Mexico many years ago in Guanajuato, Mexico, although my greatest interest was in Mexico's Pre-Columbian urban heritage. As a professor and Associate Dean of Environmental Design (now a Professor Emerita) in the CSU system, I was able to incorporate some this information into my landscape architecture history courses. I also am aware that much that has been written in English about Mexican art history was written by non-Mexicans. This has resulted in the misunderstanding that Mexican art history has been driven almost entirely by Western European art movements, styles and artists.

  • Manuel Rodríguez Lozano, the Mexican "Purist"
    Manuel Rodríguez Lozano, the Mexican “Purist”1 Alejandra Ortiz Castañares ABSTRACT Little is known about Mexican painter Manuel Rodríguez Lozano’s stay at An- dré Lhote’s academy, apart from a precious letter that is kept today at Lhote’s archive in Le Raincy, testifying that he and his friend Julio Castellanos un- doubtedly met him. That moment marked a watershed in Lozano’s career and visibly improved his technical skills, which led a few years later to the matura- tion of his distinguishably clean and essential style, underscored at that time by the term of “purism,” that had been obliterated by history. Given that Lozano’s formative development has not been discussed in rela- tion to cubism, this essay sets out to discuss André Lhote’s pedagogy as influ- ential and directional for the Mexican artist in developing a unique style. Introduction Manuel Rodríguez Lozano (1891-1971) can be seen as a symbolic figure of the Mexican modernist counterculture. He denied any of the principles that sustained the muralist movement based on moral, political or educative purposes. He in- stead, vindicated the faith of “Art for art’s sake,” focusing on the fundamental sources of art itself. Lozano always worked in the margin: his cosmopolitanism, his homosexuality and his non-communist affiliation differed from the nationalist, politicised and virile imprint of the post revolution era. Such a choice was seen in that historical, national- istic period not as unconventional but quite the opposite, as purely reactionary. 1 All the texts quoted were originally in Spanish and translated into English by the author.

  • Masculine Textualities: Gender and Neoliberalism in Contemporary Latin American Fiction
    MASCULINE TEXTUALITIES: GENDER AND NEOLIBERALISM IN CONTEMPORARY LATIN AMERICAN FICTION Vinodh Venkatesh A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Languages (Spanish). Chapel Hill 2011 Approved by: Oswaldo Estrada, Ph.D. María DeGuzmán, Ph.D. Irene Gómez-Castellano, Ph.D. Juan Carlos González-Espitia, Ph.D. Alfredo J. Sosa-Velasco, Ph.D. © 2011 Vinodh Venkatesh ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT VINODH VENKATESH: Masculine Textualities: Gender and Neoliberalism in Contemporary Latin American Fiction (Under the direction of Oswaldo Estrada) A casual look at contemporary Latin American fiction, and its accompanying body of criticism, evidences several themes and fields that are unifying in their need to unearth a continental phenomenology of identity. These processes, in turn, hinge on several points of construction or identification, with the most notable being gender in its plural expressions. Throughout the 20th century issues of race, class, and language have come to be discussed, as authors and critics have demonstrated a consciousness of the past and its impact on the present and the future, yet it is clear that gender holds a particularly poignant position in this debate of identity, reflective of its autonomy from the age of conquest. The following pages problematize the writing of the male body and the social constructs of gender in the face of globalization and neoliberal policies in contemporary Latin American fiction. Working from theoretical platforms established by Raewyn Connell, Ilan Stavans, and others, my analysis embarks on a reading of masculinities in narrative texts that mingle questions of nation, identity and the gendered body.

  • Alberto Savinio: a Bridge Between Metaphysical Painting and Mexican Modern Art
    ITALIAN MODERN ART | ISSUE 2: ISSN 2640-8511 A Bridge Between Metaphysical Painting and Mexican Modern Art ALBERTO SAVINIO: A BRIDGE BETWEEN METAPHYSICAL PAINTING AND MEXICAN MODERN ART italianmodernart.org/journal/articles/alberto-savinio-a-bridge-between-metaphysical-painting-and- mexican-modern-art 0 Carlos Segoviano Alberto Savinio, Issue 2, July 2019 -------------https://www.italianmodernart.org/journal/issues/alberto-savinio/ Abstract In 1993, alongside the first exhibition in Mexico of works by Giorgio de Chirico, a parallel exhibition entitled “Metaphysics Iconography in Mexico” explored the connections between Metaphysical Painting and Mexican modern art. Omitted from this survey was the significant relationship between Alberto Savinio and the Mexican artist Marius de Zaya: both of these artists were not only considered part of Apollinaire’s creative circle but also collaborated together on projects for international magazines such as 291. This presentation investigates the reception of Alberto Savinio’s painting and art criticism in Mexico, as well as, more specifically, his connection with the artists de Zayas, Siqueiros and Antonio Ruiz “El Corcito.” It may seem strange to write an essay that relates Andrea de Chirico, better known as Alberto Savinio, to Mexican art, given that the Greek-born Italian artist never visited “the land of the Aztecs.” There is likewise an absence of information concerning any friendships he may have maintained with promiment Mexican painters who were his contemporaries. I have identified only five translated

Justificación “Una fama sin rasgos faciales a los cuales adherirse”, Carlos Monsiváis. La lucha libre1 es un grito espectacular de la cultura popular mexicana. Es una alabanza a la irrealidad, es creer siguiendo a los sentidos. La lucha en la actualidad es un deporte que despierta pasiones en todas las esferas sociales; en antaño, los únicos que en él apreciaban algo de entretenimiento eran los habitantes de arrabal, las clases menos favorecidas, por eso lo llamaban el deporte de los pobres.
