Beginning with a piece on what it means to be Hispanic and what in particular it means to be a Hispanic artist, the volume includes interpretive essays defining and illuminating the challenging variety of contemporary Hispanic art, ranging from folk-inspired religious carvings to politically-motivated satirical work, modernist abstraction, ethnically-infected Neo-Surrealism, and impassioned New Imagism. The authors also discuss the origins of Hispanic art and the influences that have shaped it, and provide biographical sketches of the artists." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Preface and acknowledgments; Art and Identity: Hispanics in the United States, by Octavio Paz; And/Or: Hispanic Art, American Culture, by John Beardsley; Recent Hispanic Art: Style and Influence, by Jane Livingston; Artists' Biographies; Artists' Bibliographies; General Bibliography; Index.
