PINERO, Gabriela A.. Politics of representation/Politics of inclusion: Revival of the debate on the nature of Latin-American art during the first phase of globalization (1980-1990). An. Inst. Investig. Estét [online]. 2014, vol.36, n.104, pp.157-186. ISSN 0185-1276.

This article analyzes the reactivation of the debate on "Latin-Americanness" in art through controversies generated by the great panoramic exhibitions devoted to the art of the region mounted in the late 1980s and early 1990s on both sides of the Atlantic. It examines the triple front from which the questioning of this series of exhibitions was articulated: minority groups active within the "centers"; theorists operating from the margins of the artistic and economic system; and a group of exhibitions organized from within the "North" that represented criticism of the prevailing representations of Latin American art. These interventions articulated various ways of conceiving "Latin America" and its art, which are analyzed here along with the diverse strategies attempted for renegotiating the representation of the arts of the "South" and their inclusion in the incipient global scenario.
