Reseña del libro "Unrest: Art in the Aftermath of the 1992 Los Angeles Riots (en Inglés)"

The first book to examine the visual art legacy of the 1992 Los Angeles Riots. On April 29, 1992, a jury's acquittal of four white Los Angeles police officers who had beaten Rodney King, a Black man, incited five days of intense protests. The 1992 Los Angeles Riots resulted in nearly 4,000 fires, over $1 billion in property damage, 14,000 arrests, 2,000 injuries, and 63 deaths. While many have studied the period leading up to and following the riots, few have focused on how contemporary artists reacted to and continued to respond to this traumatic event. In Unrest, Rose Salseda provides the first major art historical account of the 1992 Los Angeles Riots that chronicles the works of two generations of artists. Closely examining visual art that explores overlooked cross-racial, immigrant, and intergenerational experiences of the events, Rose Salseda provocatively frames unrest as an act of the bereaved that makes visible unrelenting experiences of injustice. She provides important insights into how we process violence through imagery; how the criminal justice system visualizes race and tolerates racial and xenophobic violence; and how we adapt racialized modes of viewing, normalize violence and oppression, and may unwittingly contribute to these injustices. Ultimately, Unrest highlights how the experience of the 1992 Los Angeles Riots has driven artists to address the King beating and related episodes of racial violence for over thirty years--underscoring unrest as the inability to rest in the face of state-sanctioned violence, which persists to this day.
