- Summary
- The Local Writings Series presents critical positions from Central America, and the Caribbean and its diaspora in series of monographic books comprising manifestos, essays, chronicles, manuscripts, testimony or interviews of a diverse group of curators, theorists, thinkers, cultural critics and artists of the region. Volume 2 entitled "Divorce, Panamanian Style" compiles five essays written by editor, curator, journalist and art critic Adrienne Samos, written between 2000 and 2015. Her texts have been one of the most important drivers of critical thinking in Panama since the early 1990s, reflecting upon tge relevance and the public dimension of contemporary art. Samos's writings perfectly understand what it means to respond opportunely to the urgencies of a specific place and time. Each text is an attempt to grasp those different moments of transformation, and to reconstruct the social, economic and political processes that led to some of the most daring artistic practices in the region.
