We are pleased to begin this new year with the publication of issue 83(2). On this occasion, we include articles, academic reflections, artworks and an interview. Among the main themes, we address and reflect on the colonial and Eurocentric constructions that are still perpetuated in art today, from the curatorial discipline, the soundscape and the contemporary art of indigenous peoples. On the other hand, we also present theoretical approaches on Dramatic Arts, such as empty space, scenic play and the distinctions between payaso and clown.
We close the issue with a children's dramatic play that has already been staged in Costa Rican territory, a trombone musical arrangement of four compositions by Julio Fonseca, a Costa Rican composer, and an interview on the state of academic training in the Arts in Cuba.
You are cordially invited to read and share our new issue. We thank the Vicerrectoría de Investigación and the Sistema de Estudios de Posgrado (SEP) of the University of Costa Rica for their support in the publication of this issue.
