Title: Pintura en Bolivia en el siglo XX
Description: Augmented edition of major reference work on 20th century artists in Bolivia. "In addition to a new title more akin to the expanded spirit of this compilation -Pintura en Bolivia en el siglo XX-, and to preserve both the basic structure and the undeniably anthological general sense of the original on the pictorial production of the last 140 years in the country, this second edition provides a series of innovations with respect to the first content, explained extensively by the author in the new presentation (see pages 17-19). In any case, two general orientations stand out: the incorporation of a whole generation of artists who were entering the national scene since 1989 and, consequently, that of a set of languages -with painting as the main nucleus- typical of the evolution of contemporary art, such as photography, video art, installations, performances, etc. The contribution of this new edition is also significant, as it presents 1014 (987 in color and 27 in black and white), compared to the 379 illustrations in the first edition (299 in color and 80 in black and white). On the other hand, it has been decided to dispense with five annexes included in the first edition, due to the fact that this information currently available on the Internet."
