Description
"This volume is a unique contribution to Latin American studies because it underscores the essential role that women have played in the arenas of modern and contemporary art. [This book] provides valuable and much-needed assistance to the researcher."From the foreword by Elizabeth Ferrer With more than 1,500 references on nearly 800 women Latin American Women Artists, Kahlo and Look Who Else pays tribute to the rich and multifaceted artistic accomplishments of women in and from 20th-century Latin America. Frida Kahlo has until recently dominated the interest of scholars, curators, and the public to the point of almost eclipsing the achievements of other artists from the region. This selectively annotated bibliography begins systematically to identify other women -- painters, sculptors, printmakers, photographers, performance artists, and others -- who have made significant contributions to the history of art in the region.

Reviews:
-From many various and hard-to-locate sources, Puerto has gathered information about 20th-century Latin American women artists--their works, exhibitions, and critical essays portraying their contributions. No other bibliography of this depth on the topic exists....Puerto has done a superb job of pulling this work together...This bibliography should accomplish its purpose to 'raise awareness about the rich and extraordinarily diverse contributions which 20th-century women artists in and from Latin America have made.' Highly recommended for all academic and larger public libraries. —Choice
