Скачать или смотреть Special Mirrors: Artists Writing About Artists | San Antonio Book Festival

“If art reflects life, it does so with special mirrors,” Bertold Brecht wrote. Two novelists at the 2021 Festival feature artists in their latest books: the complications of being an artist, plus the glories of it too. Yxta Maya Murray’s novel Art Is Everything offers us a portrait of a Chicana artist as a woman on the margins. L.A. native Amanda Ruiz is a successful performance artist who is madly in love with her girlfriend, a wealthy and pragmatic actuary named Xochitl. Everything seems under control but is it? And in Jen Silverman’s novel We Play Ourselves, a young playwright flees to the West Coast, where she is drawn into the morally ambiguous orbit of a charismatic filmmaker and the teenage girls who are her next subjects.
