Fathers, Masculinity, and Authoritarianism in Latin American Cinema
How contemporary Latin American filmmakers are using the father figure to critique political leadershipIn this book, through an analysis of twenty-first-century films created in Latin America, Irina Dzero argues that contemporary filmmakers are using the figure of the father as a metaphor for political leadership. Dzero makes the case that the abusive and controlling fathers in many recent films reflect a growing rejection of predatory and coercive authority in the region. The chapters in Fathers, Masculinity, and Authoritarianism in Latin American Cinema focus on films made in Peru, Argentina, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela, and Chile. Dzero identifies different types of authoritarian leaders represented in these works the histrion who basks in the admiration of crowds the disciplinarian enforcing rules the profiteer without principle the backslapping charmer the rapist who awes with transgression and the scold who berates and gaslights. Many of these films are based on plays, novels, and memoirs written under oppressive dictatorships in the 1970s, and Dzero shows how today's cinematic retellings revise the original stories to portray children confronting and even defeating their fathers. Dzero's thought-provoking interpretations establish an innovative new way of understanding societies with political histories of authoritarianism. By tracking the shift within these countries toward accountability for leaders and their actions, this volume demonstrates the potential of creative work to represent, shape, and change cultural beliefs. Publication of this work made possible by a Sustaining the Humanities through the American Rescue Plan grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

By My Hands
A young ceramicist's journey from apprentice potter to celebrated craftsman
Florian Gadsby has devoted his life to pottery, refining his technique towards the point of perfection - and as his skill has grown, so has his social media following, which today numbers in the millions. Based at a studio in North London, he releases three new collections per year, characterized by simple forms and sharp edges, which sell out in a matter of minutes.
In By My Hands, Florian tells the story of his artistic awakening, his education in England, Ireland and Japan, and of the sheer discipline which has led him to become the cultural sensation he is today. Arguing for the value in dedicating yourself to a craft, Florian weaves anecdotes about particular pots and processes into the narrative of his life, exploring what he has learnt from specific pieces he was taught to throw during his apprenticeships and how they have informed his philosophy and approach to his work.
By My Hands is an ode to the beauty of small things, such as a simple hand-thrown mug or bowl, which can brighten life's daily rituals and make them more meaningful - as well as an inspiring testament to the power of perseverance.
Poor Artists
'Let me stay there, let me paint. Let me go to bed when the sun comes up. I don't want life to sharpen me.'
Why make art? Faced with a capitalist system that has turned art into artwork and creative expression into cut-throat competition, why do so many artists try anyway?
In this eye-opening journey through the bizarre world of contemporary art, criticism duo The White Pube tell the story of art like never before. Poor Artists follows aspiring artist Quest Talukdar through childhood obsessions, art school lessons and her professional debut. In surreal encounters with other artists, Quest learns profound truths about money and power, and must decide whether she cares more about success or staying true to herself.
Blending imaginative storytelling with dialogue from anonymized interviews with real people in the art world who have all had to wrestle with the same decisions – including a Turner Prize winner or two, a few ghosts, a Venice Biennale fraudster and a communist messiah – Poor Artists is a powerful testimony to the emotional, existential and financial experience of artists today.

Dinh Van
A tribute to French jewelry designer Jean Dinh Van who, in 1965, created a brand that defied all expectations, with innovative pieces designed to be worn by all.
An iconoclast by nature, French jeweler Jean Dinh Van worked metal by hand like a sculptor, guided by his instinctive creative impulse. With a modernist vision, he designed jewelry imbued with style that could be worn with anything, anywhere, anytime. He took jewelry “into the streets” with models like the handcuff bracelet that transgressed and revolutionized the traditional codes of Paris’s famed high jewelry district, the Place Vendôme.
Dinh Van, the “geometer of jewelry,” placed shape and form at the center of his innovative style. Photographs of his iconic works reveal his distinctive vocabulary, from his predilection to the void to his sublimation of ordinary objects—razor blades, military ID tags, thumbtacks—to his interpretation of the rounded square or the chain link. His artistic flair led to collaborations with many artists and couture designers, including Pierre Cardin, Paco Rabanne, and Thierry Mugler.
Published to celebrate the brand’s sixtieth anniversary, this monograph recounts the history of the groundbreaking jewelry designer, his emblematic creations, and how Maison Dinh Van continues to draw inspiration from his legacy, adapting his revolutionary codes to the modern day.
