The Department of Modern Languages and Literatures and the Program in Latin American, Caribbean, and Latinx Studies are pleased to present Esther Gabara<\/strong> (Duke University) for a talk and conversation about her new book Non-literary Fiction: Art of the Americas under Neoliberalism<\/em><\/strong> (University of Chicago Press, 2022).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Non-literary Fiction<\/em>, Gabara examines how contemporary art produced across the Americas has reacted to the rising tide of neoliberal regimes, focusing on the crucial role of fiction in daily politics. Gabara argues that these particular fictions depart from familiar literary narrative structures and emerge in the new mediums and practices that have revolutionized contemporary art. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Esther Gabara works with modern and contemporary art, literature, and critical theory from the Americas. Her teaching in the departments of Romance Studies and Art, Art History & Visual Studies at Duke University covers visual studies, modernism, photography, Pop Art and popular culture, feminism, public art, and coloniality in contemporary art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
