Product Description
Un arte sin tutela: Salón Independiente en México, 1968-1971 is a historical review of one of the most important initiatives that changed artistic practices in Mexico.
The publication offers a detailed reading of the terms and alternatives in which the confrontations of the late 1960s took place, for artists, officials and audiences alike, at a key moment that changed subsequent Mexican art.
The catalogue describes the freedom of creation, self-management, the use of new languages and non-traditional media -such as film or fashion-, the emphasis on the process of collective creation, artistic experimentation and its anti-official and anti-academic stance as the essence of the three editions of the Salón Independiente and the alternative events developed by the group.
It exposes the works and essays of several authors (Helena Chávez Mac Gregor, Arden Decker, Pilar García, Adolfo Gilly, Sol Henaro, Alejandra Labastida, Antonio Martínez Velázquez, Annabela Tournon y Álvaro Vázquez Mantecón)
