The publication explores the creative practices of Latin American women artists who, between 1960 and 1990, channeled their artistic energy into printed and serialized media. This period traces the rise and evolution of the conceptual art movement, which emerged around 1960 and, depending on the region, extended into the late 1980s. During these decades, artists’ books and other forms of printed matter became part of a growing repertoire of new artistic formats - alongside installation, video, and performance - that expanded the boundaries of traditional art forms and opened new possibilities for artistic expression. The book was released in October 2023 to accompany the exhibition of the same name at the Center for Book Arts in New York.
