Through private interviews, sidewalk polls and video-recorded forums, among other interventions, Jaars three-year and seven-phase project, Studies on Happiness, addressed a furtive and fearful population living under Augusto Pinochets military dictatorship. It also spoke to a country in transition, as a newly adopted constitution remade Chile through privatisation and other neoliberal reforms. In its varied interventions and direct mode of address, Studies on Happiness functioned as a feedback device meant to catalyse a critical awareness with its blunt questioning.Edward A. Vazquez contextualises Studies on Happiness within Jaars early production and situates his practice within a Chilean art world haunted by the residues of political violence. This study foregrounds the projects historical embeddedness and the deep political stakes of its apparent sociality, recognising the crucial role that context has always played in Jaars practice. By turning to the Santiago of Studies on Happiness, Vazquez explores the works political and art historical environment and provides a wedge to realign current interpretations of Chilean art and hemispheric conceptualism with the openness central to Jaars project....1716078Alfredo Jaar278386https://www.gandhi.com.mx/alfredo-jaar/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/510486/4bb652c1-5286-4680-bda5-84fc0edd62cf.jpg?v=638335103944600000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20239781846382604_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9781846382604_A richly illustrated survey of Alfredo Jaars Studies on Happiness (19791981) and its deep political stakes in the historical context of Chiles neoliberal transition.Between 1979 and 1981, a young artist and architecture school dropout named Alfredo Jaar asked Chileans the deceptively simple question: Are you happy? Including private interviews, sidewalk polls, and video-recorded forums, among other interventions, Jaars two-year and seven-phase project, Studies on Happiness, addressed a country in transition, as a newly adopted constitution remade Chile through privatization and other neoliberal reforms. Jaars first major artwork has been imprecisely discussed in the monographic literature on the artist and rarely mentioned in studies of Chilean art after 1973.Edward Vazquez contextualizes Jaars Studies on Happiness within his early production and places his practice within the Chilean art world, thus reinstating the projects historical embeddedness and the deep political stakes of its sociality. The works marginality is a strength: its minor status in the period and in Jaars oeuvre allow it an historical freedom in engaging Chilean culture under Augusto Pinochet and provides a wedge to realign current interpretations of Chilean art and hemispheric conceptualism with the openness central to Jaars project....(*_*)9781846382604_A richly illustrated survey of Alfredo Jaars Studies on Happiness (19791981) and its deep political stakes in the historical context of Chiles neoliberal transition.Between 1979 and 1981, Alfredo Jaar asked Chileans a deceptively simple question: "Are you happy?"
