Author: Camil, Pia
This is the first monograph dedicated to the practice of Mexican artist Pia Camil. The book combines formal institutional documentation with material from the artist’s personal archive to feature 32 projects from 2006 to date. Three illustrated essays and an interview with the artist delve into her practice. With English & Spanish texts, this book makes Camil's contribution to feminist & Latin American artistic practices in the context of late capitalism accessible to a wider audience.Camil’s work engages in a revisionist formal exercise that rethinks canonical figures in Western Art from a Latin American female perspective, while also setting her art within the socio-political realities of Mexico and the United States. The book was designed in collaboration between the artist and Mexican designer Sofia Broid and includes an addendum by Gabriela Jauregui.
