The book "addresses, from an historical-anthropological perspective, the various stages that brought to life the art movement known as Estridantismo, from the influence of the artistic avant-gardes, from its emergence in Mexico City to its development in the city of Xalapa, where its main driver was Heriberto Jara Corona. The author also evidences that it was not only relevant to the local culture of Xalapa, but also at a national and international level." (HKB Translation) --Verso Cover.
