Mujeres, feminismo y arte popular

"It seems that we don't know, really, what we are talking about when we talk about folk art. And, moreover, it does not exist anywhere in the world a theoretical body structured on the relationship between popular art and gender. The present volume compiled by Eli Bartra and María Guadalupe Huacuz Elias, is a pioneer in this type of study and through the collaboration of prominent Latin American voices, sheds light on the subject for the first time. The texts collected in this book placed various processes of art popular in specific social context so that they reveal the issues - feminine, ethnic - identity, silent elements that are barely a whisper."--Verso Cover.
