"La memoria y las emociones, personales y colectivas, juegan un rol clave en esta exhibición", dijo la curadora en jefe de arte de Americas Society.
"Telenovela reclaims the televised soap opera as a primary subject of rigorous art-historical, social, and political inquiry," said the publication.
Telenovelas "are a very important part of Latin America, but also international culture", said the show's curator Aimé Iglesias Lukin to the publication.
The publication says that the Americas Society exhibit "makes an utterly compelling case for the telenovela as a stealth medium for social critique."
This fully illustrated publication accompanies the Americas Society exhibition Telenovela, on view September 9, 2026 through March 27, 2027.
This book looks at how telenovelas, as popular entertainment and global commodities, have conveyed Latin American social, political and economic values.
La muestra realza "la identidad cultural plural", dijo a la agencia Aimé Iglesias Lukin, directora y curadora en jefe de Art at Americas Society.
