Zusammenfassung:Minerva Cuevas' aesthetic practice can be situated at the interface between political action and exercises of social self- determination. Among the central themes she has addressed through her work are the commodification of natural resources all over the world, the social causes and consequences of climate change and the neoliberal mechanisms of power that exist in both the private and public realm. Cuevas works across a variety of media, including film, performance, installations and murals, whereby the process of conducting research is a key component of her artistic method. In a clear gesture of non- compliance and resistance, she frequently appropriates the language of the establishment, such as institutional branding and commercial advertising. This first monograph of the artist brings together a large selection of projects that Minerva Cuevas has realized since the 1990s and it acts as a research tool for diverse and flexible interpretations and readings of the artist's work. An associative approach to the oeuvre as a whole allows interconnections to come to the fore.
