About
"The Essential Writings" is a series of monographic books comprising manifestos, essays, chronicles, manuscripts, testimony or interviews of a diverse group of curators, theorists, thinkers, cultural critics and artists of the region. Volume 1 entitled "Crítical Proximity" compiles 5 essays by curator, researcher and author Tamara Díaz Bringas (b. Cuba 1973, currently based in Madrid). Since the end of the 1990's the work of Tamara has contributed decisively to the construction of the field of debate, local and international, on the contemporary art of the region. Five essays gathered here, written between 2001 and 2015, reveal us her diverse interests and stakes, which range from observing strictly artistic processes to the reflection on specific political junctures, from retrospective reviews, to poetic exercises on the future. Tamara Díaz was curator and editorial coordinator of TEOR/éTica, in San José, Costa Rica from 1999 to 2009. She is currently Chief curator of the 10th Central American Biennial, to be held in Costa Rica in September 2016.
