Polgovsky Ezcurra examines the politics and ethics of intermedial performance in Latin America during the "long 1980s". Looking at the work of artists from Argentina, Chile, and Mexico, she examines the flourishing of performance art in times of authoritarianism and the ways in which performative gestures animated a range of artistic practices, including collage, poetry, sculpture, mail art, and cybernetic art.
