Transgresoras: Mail Art and Messages, 1960s–2020sis a survey of Latin and Latin American women artists that used mail art, postal networks, messages, and distribution in their work. By working outside of traditional gallery and museum structures, the featured artists transgressed gender norms and oppressive political and artistic systems to evade the dominant artworld’s capitalistic structures and, in many historical cases, undermine the censorship of authoritarian regimes. This richly-illustrated publication includes texts that examine the cultural and historic importance and impact of key mail artworks. Featuring, among others, Anna Bella Geiger, Cecilia Vicuña, Graciela Gutiérrez Marx, Liliana Porter, Magali Lara, Marta Minujín, Mónica Mayer, Regina Silveira, Rosa de la Montaña (aka Teddy Sandoval), Virginia Errázuriz, Amalia Pica, Beatriz Cortez, Carmen Argote, Carolina Caycedo, Clarissa Tossin, Gala Porras-Kim, Giana de Dier, Marilyn Boror Bor, Regina José Galindo, Voluspa Jarpa.
