DESCRIPTION:'Creating lo típico Pátzcuaro: Architecture\, Race\, and Histor
 ical Preservation in 1930s Mexico'\n	\n	Jennifer Jolly\n	Ithaca College\n\nBi
 o: Jennifer Jolly is Associate Professor of Art History at Ithaca College.
  Professor Jolly researches the intersection of art and politics in modern
  Mexico.  She specializes in the work of the Mexican muralists\, and has r
 ecently published on the work of David Alfaro Siqueiros and Josep Renau at
  the Mexican Electricians’ Syndicate.  Broader research interests include 
 understanding the Muralists within the context of international politics o
 f the 1930s\, the intersections of art and technology\, and the regional d
 issemination of Mexican Muralism.  Her current project investigates the ar
 t--murals\, sculptures\, and their architectural settings--commissioned by
  Lázaro Cárdenas in Michoacan\, Mexico\, as part of a program of tourism d
 evelopment and national integration.\n	\n	Abstract: The expression 'lo típic
 o' has served as a buzz-word in Mexico\, used in the realms of tourism and
  historical preservation to evoke the promise of 'the traditional\,' 'the 
 vernacular\,' or 'the authentic.'  I'll argue\, however\, that in the cont
 ext of the 1930s\, in fact this term was central to the modernization and 
 transformation regional Mexico.  Examining the historical preservation of 
 the town of Pátzcuaro\, Michoacan\, reveals that lo típico was used simult
 aneously as an architectural and racial term\, and that it operated at the
  intersection of the development of the region's tourism economy and the f
 oundations of colonial art history in Mexico. At stake in the 1930s creati
 on of lo típico Pátzcuaro (and Mexico\, more broadly) was the recasting of
  Mexico's racial diversity as purely rooted in indigenous and Spanish heri
 tage\, and the erasing of Mexico's 'third root\,' or African heritage.\n
