Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the late 1980s to the present, artists of Filipino descent in the United States have produced a challenging and creative movement. In The Decolonized Eye, Sarita Echavez See shows how these artists have engaged with the complex aftermath of U.S. colonialism in the Philippines. Focusing on artists working in New York and California, See examines the overlapping artistic and aesthetic practices and concerns of filmmaker Angel Shaw, painter Manuel Ocampo, installation artist Paul Pfeiffer, comedian Rex Navarrete, performance artist Nicky Paraiso, and sculptor Reanne Estrada to explain the reasons for their strangely shadowy presence in American culture and scholarship. Offering an interpretation of their creations that accounts for their queer, decolonizing strategies of camp, mimesis, and humor, See reveals the conditions of possibility that constitute this contemporary archive. By analyzing art, performance, and visual culture, The Decolonized Eye illuminates the unexpected consequences of America's amnesia over its imperial history.

Javellana's Weaving Cultures: The Invention of Colonial Art and Culture in the Philippines, 1565-1850 reads the emergence of a unique art and culture in the Philippines during the colonial era from the optic of communications theory and the emerging theoretical discourse from information design. It views colonial exchange not primarily as an exchange of cultural goods, but as a negotiation forged by the communication between sender and receiver. In such a process, the cultural good is transformed as it leaves the context of the sender and it transferred to the context of the receiver, who may be antipodes of each other - physically, psychologically, and culturally - as was the case of Filipinos and Europeans. It traces exchanges in the areas of space, the biota, the visual, literary, performative, culinary, and sartorial arts and documents how messages are transmitted, decoded and transformed to create the new reality of colonial art and culture.--Artbooks.ph.
