Hardback, 496 pages, Size:220 x 280 mm, Illustrations:30 b/w, 270 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503615882. Summary Organized as a tribute to the distinguished art historian Edward J. Sullivan, this compelling volume brings together fresh perspectives on Latin American and Latinx art. Its seventeen essays illuminate often overlooked artists, mediums, geographies, and traditions with new research and insightful analysis. The volume is arranged into four thematic sections. "Hemispheric Modernisms" addresses how artists across the Americas have engaged with global art movements and transnational networks while responding to their local contexts and concerns. "Politics of Images" focuses on images embedded with overt or covert political meanings, as well as works that address the politics of identity. "Museums on Display" unravels the role of museums in current debates in the field. How works are selected and by whom, the contexts in which they are displayed, and the many implications of omissions from institutional spaces are some of the critical issues discussed. "Women at the Center" foregrounds the work of female artists. The essays in this section show how women's creativity has been subjected to myopic criticism, lay bare the endemic barriers that have accounted for the invisibility of artists, and map out a more inclusive future. Rounding out the volume is a revealing conversation with Sullivan about his role in shaping the field and his reflections on the future of Latin American art during times of change. Designed to be engaging for readers new to the field, longtime aficionados, and specialists, Visualizing the Americas opens up unexpected pathways through the expanding canon of this increasingly popular field. With contributions by?Miriam M. Basilio Gaztambide,?Denise Birkhofer,?Vanessa K. Davidson,?Esther Gabara,?Michele Greet,?Anna Indych-L pez, Rachel Kaplan, Ilona Katzew, Lynda Klich, Adele Nelson,?Sean Nesselrode Moncada, Luis P rez-Oramas,?Ana Mar a Reyes,?Juli n S nchez Gonz lez,?Joseph Shaikewitz, Edward J.
