Architettura mariano-morfica: L'esempio della Capilla del Pocito a Guadalupe
1994
EL ESQUEMA ARQUITECTONICO DE ALGUNAS IGLESIAS AMERICANAS ESTA INSPIRADO EN LA ICONOGRAFIA MARIANA. UN EJEMPLO DE ARQUITECTURA MARIANO-MORFICA ES LA CAPILLA DEL POCITO DE GUADALUPE, MEXICO. REALIZADA POR EL ARQUITECTO FRANCISCO GUERRERO Y TORRES ENTRE 1777 Y 1791, SIGUE MODELOS DE LA ANTIGUEDAD REELABORADOS POR SERLIO. LA RELACION DEL POCITO CON LA ICONOGRAFIA MARIANA HAY QUE VERLA TANTO POR SU UBICACION EN EL SANTUARIO MARIANO MAS IMPORTANTE DE AMERICA COMO POR SUS PROPIAS CARACTERISTICAS PLANICOVOLUMETRICAS. LA CAPILLA ES COMO UNA LETANIA LAURETANA PETRIFICADA, ANALOGA A LAS NUMEROSAS REPRESENTACIONES PICTORICAS DE LA INMACULADA CONCEPCION CIRCUNDADA POR SIMBOLOS LAURETANOS (ABC/LAG).
Breast Cancer in Two Ex‑Votos, A Millennia Apart: Patients’ Hope and Faith Expressed Through the Centuries in Votive Offerings
2023
A votive offering or ex-voto includes a variety of usually non-professional artworks offered to divinities and placed in religious sites to fulfill a vow or in gratitude for recovery from an illness or injury. Unfortunately, the ancient period lacks a scientifically verifiable understanding of the true nature of cancer and its natural history and, consequently, a lack of effective treatment. This paper discusses two ex-votos potentially related to breast cancer distant more than 2000 years, one from the other. The ex-votos convey the complex relationship of humans with illness through an art expression stemming from the heart and minds of ordinary people.

Religious and spiritual motifs in the art of the patients of Nikkilä Hospital
2021
This article focuses on religiousness and spirituality in the art works of psychiatric patients of Nikkilä Hospital, Finland. The pictures analysed here belong to a collection held at the Helsinki City Museum and they were made during the twentieth century. The theoretical frame of the study is a cultural study of mental health. The collection is approached as presenting a specific kind of imagery which has connections not only to the personal history and diagnoses of the patients; their cultural context and hospital environment is also taken into account. The religiousness and spirituality of the Nikkilä collection are also compared with outsider art and examples of art history internation…

Marie Baldwin, racism, and the society of American Indians
2020
The French/Ojibwa lawyer, activist, and Office of Indian Affairs employee, Marie Louise Bottineau Baldwin (1863–1952), often receives mention in scholarly works on the Society of American Indians (SAI). Very few, however, have examined her contributions in detail. Only one article focusing exclusively on Baldwin has ever been published. Cathleen D. Cahill’s flattering portrait depicts Baldwin as a devoted suffragette and leading SAI figure who, in her roles as cofounder and treasurer, promoted the cause of Indian rights and her own Ojibwa values concerning women’s equality. Cahill explains Baldwin’s sudden exit from the SAI as a result of attacks by male, anti-Indian Office “radicals” who c…
