Summary:In this book, the author questions the representations of the Indians in Mexican history and art. Assistant Professor of Modern and Contemporary Latin American Art at the University of California, San Diego, Mariana Botey (aka Razo-Wardwell) analysis focuses particularly on the narrative, messianic and prophetic, forms of past and future Indian imageries, and analyzes the way in which Europeans imagined and interpreted the native cultures. Concepts and metaphors such as the Indian revolution of Antonin Artaud, the "Essay on General Economy" of Georges Bataille, the primitive communism concept of American archaeologist Adolph Francis Bandelier and the Republic of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, are rebuilt and contextualized into Mexican genealogy and archives, based on postcolonial critical theory.
