Rachel Weiss

    Diese Künstlerin und Designerin aus Texas konzentriert sich in ihrer Arbeit auf Themen wie Feminismus, Hexen (im Sinne von weisen alten Frauen) und Hunde. Sie ist die „Boss Crone“ des POMEgranate Magazine und verkörpert eine Haltung gestärkter Weiblichkeit im Alter. Ihr persönliches Ziel, ihren Tee eines Tages ohne viel Milch und Zucker trinken zu können, deutet auf eine Suche nach Verfeinerung und einem einfacheren Geschmack hin.

      Edited by Afterall Books in collaboration with the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, this book is the second in the Exhibition Histories series, focusing on the third Bienal de La Habana held in 1989. Rachel Weiss's core essay explores how this exhibition expanded the global landscape of contemporary art and redefined the biennial model. Gerardo Mosquera, a key member of the curatorial team, reflects on the project, while the book documents the constituent exhibitions and events through photographs. It includes Geeta Kapur's conference paper, along with reviews by Coco Fusco and Luis Camnitzer. An introduction by Charles Esche sets the stage for recent interviews with artists Alex Ángeles, José Bedia, Alfredo Márquez, and Lázaro Saavedra. These crucial texts from the time are enhanced by new material, offering a comprehensive perspective on the Bienal's impact. The Exhibition Histories series, consisting of ten volumes, is dedicated to the history of contemporary exhibition practices, with each volume providing in-depth analyses of historically significant exhibitions.
