Encompassing paintings and environments in the vein of pop art, as well as conceptual drawings and cybernetic installations, the oeuvre of Peruvian artist Teresa Burga (born 1935) highlights the individual's ability to influence social conditions. Her early attraction to conceptual art led her to become a founding member of the Peruvian avant-garde movement Grupo Arte Nuevo (1966–68). In 1968, as a Fulbright scholar, Burga left Peru to study at the Art Institute of Chicago, where she developed her mature pop-conceptual practice, moving away from painting to produce installations, research-based projects and happenings. This volume provides an overview of her work from the 1960s to the present, reflecting on Burga's strategies and themes.

About the Author

L'artiste conceptuelle Teresa Burga (n�e en 1935 � Iquitos, P�rou, vit et travaille � Lima, P�rou) est une pionni�re de l'art multim�dia et de l'installation au P�rou. Dans les ann�es 1960, elle fut membre du groupe Arte Nuevo, collectif qui importa les nouveaux courants de l'avant-garde au P�rou, comme le Pop Art, l'Op art et les happenings. La r��valuation r�cente du travail de Teresa Burga est le fruit de l'affirmation d'un r�seau de th�oriciens de l'art et d'artistes latino-am�ricains, qui entreprennent actuellement une relecture de l'art conceptuel du Sud (Southern Conceptualisms Network).
