Artes Visuales: The Latin American Avant-Garde in Print
Thursday, April 30, 5 PM to 7 PM
ISLAA, 142 Franklin Street, TriBeCa
Join us at ISLAA to celebrate the launch of Artes Visuales: The Latin American Avant-Garde in Print, a publication shaped by sustained research into one of the most influential magazines in Latin American art. The evening includes remarks by Anna Indych-López on Carla Stellweg and her role in connecting artists, critics, and ideas across borders.
Part of The ISLAA Artist Initiative, the book brings together essays and interviews by Hunter College MA and MFA students and revisits Artes Visuales as both a publication and a network. Developed alongside a 2025 exhibition at Hunter College Art Galleries, curated by Harper Montgomery with graduate students and supported by ISLAA, the project unites research, exhibition, and publication into a single platform, offering a renewed understanding of print culture and its role in shaping a transnational avant-garde.
A reception will follow.
