Artful Copies: The Urrutia Collection and Porfirian Visual Culture
Ochiq kirish: yoʻq
Annotatsiya
In the early twentieth century Aureliano Urrutia, a prominent Mexican physician and politician, amassed a collection of copies of famous antique, Renaissance, and Mexican paintings and sculptures that he installed in estates in Mexico City and San Antonio, where he immigrated in 1914. Read as a whole, and examined in light of Mexico's historical relationship to copies and unidentified artists and the problem of the copy in art history generally, the Urrutia collection illuminates issues central to modern Mexican visual culture, particularly the flexible relationship between form and content and the manipulation of images and associations to construct meaning.
