She is part of a generation of artists revisiting the history of Mexican arts and crafts with a multidisciplinary and pedagogical approach. Her practice explores the production and distribution of images; using strategies such as appropriation and performance, Rubio condenses arts and crafts, history and storytelling. This book focuses on the construction of \u003ci\u003emestizaje\u003c\/i\u003e (meaning \"mixed race\") and the differences between a \"popular\" art and a \"cultured\" art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Temblores Publicaciones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9786079939762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.10h x 9.80w x 0.40d","brand":"Wendy Cabrera Rubio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45439145148597,"sku":"9786079939762","price":25.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_02f07c9b-235e-492b-8f16-08a6c257f3dd.jpg?v=1749003664","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/wendy-cabrera-rubio-the-adventures-of-relative-existence-and-other-tales-9786079939762","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
