Published to celebrate a landmark 2018 exhibition at Pioneer Works, PÃTOPRENS comprises the first major survey of contemporary artists of urban Haiti. Printed in both English and Haitian Kreyòl, PÃTOPRENS is a map-like reflection of the urban landscape and a new geography of popular production. The city of Port-au-Prince is a polyphonic metropolis that declares its past via multiple voices; in this volume, the city's complex present is evoked through artworks, images, testimonies, and essays. These contents are organized around distinct zones of artistic production--urban neighborhoods identified with particular subjects, materials, and forms. Focusing on 14 of these areas' exemplary artists, PÃTOPRENS mirrors the geography of the city that inspired it. Contextualized by leading writers on Caribbean history and culture, these artists' stories are situated within Port-au-Prince's rich heritage of "majority class art." As cities everywhere grow ever-more critical to our changing global environment, catalyzing cultural, social, political, and economic transitions of all kinds, this book articulates urban Haiti's unbroken link with its revolutionary past. It also issues an insistent call to relocate that past, and the vital forms of expressive culture its echoes still feed, within the contemporary record. -- Publisher's website 650 0 $a Art, Haitian $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art, Haitian $z Port-au-Prince $z Port-au-Prince $v Exhibitions. 651 0 $a Port-au-Prince (Haiti) $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art and society $z Port-au-Prince. $z Port-au-Prince. 700 1 $a Gordon, Leah, $e editor. 700 1 $a Jelly-Schapiro, Joshua, $e editor. 700 1 $a Duval-CarrieÌ, Edouard, $d 1954- $e contributor. 700 1 $a Fleming, Richard, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Ulysse, Gina Athena, $e contributor. 710 2 $a Pioneer Works Center for Art and Innovation, $e host institution. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20221103012059.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=72CA68D40CA811EDB1735DF129ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
