Abstract:
This study offers preliminary notes for revisiting the histories of the Academia de San Carlos de México and the artist's portrait through the lens of men's studies and masculinity studies. By studying the interactions between the production of discourses on artistic and gender identities during the “long nineteenth century”, I reveal processes that affected both the representation and the dynamics of (homo)sociality within the institution. Through a historiographical, theoretical, and methodological approach I propose a route that may allow us to visibilize issues that have been overlooked by art historiography.

Beyond the Milky Way (1978): Gerardo Reichel-Dolmatoff's Visual History

Abstract:
In the history of Colombian archaeology and anthropology, the role of Gerardo Reichel-Dolmatoff (1912–1994) is well known, and his research on indigenous art is an essential component of his legacy. Better known for his visual analysis of archaeological findings, it was nevertheless in his ethnographic work that he took more intellectual risks. In 1978 he published Beyond the Milky Way, where he formulated a groundbreaking visual anthropological study of the Tukano community and the yagé ritual. This article argues that this work formulated a strategy for a historiography of indigenous art based on gesture, which is worth studying today as a theory and methodology for research in art history.
