Abstract

Fuera de revoluciones: dos décadas de arte en Cuba (2016) by Mailyn Machado was recently published by Almenara Press, an innovative publishing venture founded by Cuban writer, Waldo Pérez Cino, in 2014 in Holland. Earning an honorable mention in Casa de las América’s essay prize (Cuba) in 2015, this first book by Cuban critic and curator, Mailyn Machado, is a treasure-trove of creative theoretical musings and artistic revelations that illustrate the extent to which the realms of art, history, sociology, politics and everyday life are inseparable in the last two decades of Cuba. With an introduction and ten chapters, divided into three parts, Fuera de revoluciones captures readers through its combination of personal anecdote and deep understanding of a visual arts archive, implementing “Inter/personal/net”—a topic that Machado thoroughly investigates— to link together the chapters, which can also be read as separate essays, written over a ten-year period from 2000-2010.
