In this book distinguished Renaissance art historians reevaluate the Eurocentrism of Italian Renaissance art history by envisioning how the history of Renaissance art would look if cultural interaction and the conditions of reception became the primary focus. Scholars such as Anthony Cutler  Thomas DaCosta Kaufmann  Martin Kemp  Cecelia Klein  and Claudia Lazzaro examine the function  reception  and influence of specific kinds of images and other manufactured objects as they were disseminated around the globe  particularly between Renaissance Italy and Latin America.  The first section  on historiography  identifies significant problems in past conceptualizations of Renaissance art. The next essays examine the conceptual frameworks in which visual representation functioned in Europe and Latin America. The third section discusses early collecting practices and cultural exchange in Europe. Three essays then present case studies of culturally hybrid imagesof unruly women  colonial maps  and ethnic stereotypesin intercultural perspective. In the epilogue  W.J.T. Mitchell examines contemporary views of how we construct the human subject.  Bringing together the familiar and the unfamiliar in a highly thought-provoking way  the book is an important contribution to many fields of study  including historiography  Latin American art  and Renaissance studies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45647572271157,"sku":"ByrdShop_0300062958","price":222.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780300062953.jpg?v=1781693524","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/reframing-the-renaissance-visual-culture-in-europe-and-latin-america-14501650-9780300062953","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
