Art of Colonial Latin America (Art & Ideas)by Gauvin Alexander Bailey
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Covers the period (1492-1820) of Spanish and Portuguese colonial influence on the art and architecture of South Amerika as well as the southwest United States. Reveals the rich results on all art forms of the mixing of colonial and indigenous cultures: paintings, sculptures, architecture, textiles, furniture and ceramics. Book News Annotation:Bailey (art history, Clark U., Worcester, Mass.) has done a
commendable job of presenting in a concise format a readable and
coherent overview of the issues, contexts, and history that surround
the vast field of colonial art and architecture throughout Latin
America. Chapters present discussion of the European models that
influenced colonial forms, the indigenous response to colonization,
the forms of imperialism, the guilds and academies for art, major
church architecture, and arts of the aristocracy. A (brief) final
chapter alludes to the artistic impact of the Iberian presence in
Asia and Africa.
