Summary

The author analyzes the electronic and digital arts carried out within the framework of cultural institutions in Mexico between the eighties and the first decade of 2000, locating them as a revision stage of the ways of doing, the media and the technologies for the creation that revealed a transdisciplinary artistic modernism; fostered in the alliances between an art system defined by painting, drawing, engraving and photography; and a global culture of media, photocopying, computing, and virtual reality. In the studies that make up the author's book, he maintains that electronic and digital arts testify to the entry and gradual positioning of a cognitive capitalism in the local artistic circuit, which caused hybrid modes of production that combined the manufacture of the artists' workshop and industrial work with a nascent immaterial work. These are modes of production typical of a post-production economy, the study of which is key to understanding the genealogical history of contemporary art in Mexico.
