Brazilian Art from 1960s to 1980s: An Aesthetics of the Margins

Claudia Calirman

Workshop

This workshop explores the period from the late 1960s through the 1980s, in which prominent Brazilian artists claimed that their work existed at the margins of society, both apart and alienated from the conservative social order, taking up the term 'marginália' or marginality, proposing an alternative strategy to hegemonic artistic modes of production.

Claudia Calirman is Associate Professor at John Jay College of Criminal Justice, New York, in the Department of Art and Music. Her areas of study are Latin American, modern, and contemporary art.
