With what operative models, local and imported, does the Latin American plastic artist face his circumstances; and, with what sorts of critical feedback is he faced?
No full textPart 1: The panel opens with humorous and candid remarks about the complexity of defining Latin American artistic models, touching on issues of cultural continuity, criticism, and identity, while introducing key speakers. Participants emphasized the diverse and hybrid nature of Latin American art, shaped by historical, social, and political realities, and the tension between imported models and native traditions. Aracy Amaral explored how local context, popular culture, and evolving artistic codes influence creative expression in Latin America today.
Part 2: Latin American art’s meaning is framed within the Western concept of modern art, which arose by integrating so-called “primitive” aesthetics and breaking local cultural norms. While modern art’s primary function is aesthetic and self-reflective, Latin American artists face a unique tension between adopting universal modernist models and expressing their own evolving cultural identities amid social and political realities. This results in art that is both influenced by global modernism and deeply engaged with local circumstances, rejecting imposed uniformity and emphasizing continuous identity search rather than fixed nationalism.
Part 3: The panel centers on the complex role of art criticism and cultural identity in Latin America. Dore Ashton argues that critics should not prescribe artistic direction but rather offer a broad intellectual context, while others, including Manrique, Felguérez, and Amaral, debate the limitations of Latin American art criticism—particularly its lack of infrastructure, its testimonial rather than influential nature, and its dependency on external validation. The conversation ultimately highlights the tension between imported models and local realities, emphasizing the artist’s ambivalent position between Western influence and Latin American identity
Part 4: The central tension is between adopting international art trends and developing a distinct Latin American artistic language rooted in the region’s social realities and political consciousness. While figures like Marta Traba advocate for an “art of resistance” as a response to cultural imperialism, others debate whether critics should propose models or merely interpret them, and whether shifts in artistic style (like that of Julio Le Parc) should be judged ideologically or aesthetically. Ultimately, the debate underscores the persistent question of what defines "Latin American art" and whether such a definition should exist at all.
Part 5: This panel addressed key tensions in Latin American contemporary art, particularly the distinctions between art criticism and art history, the urgent need for more comprehensive information and documentation, and the complex question of Latin American identity. Participants emphasized the lack of cross-national knowledge among experts, called for efforts like a visual catalog of contemporary Latin American art, and debated issues such as the São Paulo Biennial's Eurocentrism and the ambiguous identity of Chicano artists. Tamayo closed the session reflecting on criticism, revolutionary art, and mestizo identity, advocating for self-criticism over propaganda and reaffirming pride in Indigenous heritage

Cédula real que ordena la recaudación de un subsidio papal para expulsar a los protestantes escoceses de Panamá, 1700 abril 11
No full textDecreto real que ordena a los oficiales de la Real Hacienda en la Ciudad de México recaudar un subsidio concedido por el papa para financiar la guerra de España contra los protestantes escoceses en Darién (actual Panamá). El breve papal autoriza la recaudación de un millón de ducados de las propiedades eclesiásticas de las Américas, que deberán distribuirse por medio de los arzobispos y obispos de cada diócesis. El rey enfatiza la urgencia de defender la región para evitar que las potencias protestantes restablezcan colonias e insiste en que todos los fondos se apliquen estrictamente a este propósito. —— Royal decree ordering the royal treasury officials in Mexico City to collect a subsidy the pope granted to fund Spain’s war against Scottish Protestants in Darién (present-day Panama).

RiceExtent v1.0: A Global Rice-Specific Land Cover Product from Multi-Source Data Integration
No full textThe study presents RiceExtent v1.0, a harmonized, high resolution (10 m and 250 m), global rice-specific land cover dataset developed by integrating verified local, national, and regional rice maps with ESA WorldCover using a reliability-weighted spatial merging approach that prioritizes source accuracy and spatial detail. Using an extent-based merging strategy rather than annual averages, RiceExtent captures the maximum observed rice cultivation extent rice cultivation, effectively representing double and triple cropping, fragmented smallholder fields, and inter-annual variability often underrepresented in other products. The final product was validated against Spatial Production Allocation Model, RiceAtlas, and Global Rice, along with USDA rice production statistics and >29,000 ground-truth samples. The developed dataset captures an estimated global rice area of ~1.64 million km², closely aligning with official statistics and improving representation in Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Africa and the Americas. RiceExtent v1.0, provided through an open repository [repository name/link] with Python script offers a robust resource for agricultural monitoring, crop and hydrological modeling, and climate impact assessments, while enabling collaborative refinement of global rice mapping
