Hemispheric Integration: Materiality, Mobility, and the Making of Latin American Art (Volume 3) (Studies on Latin American Art) Details
From the Inside Flap "Niko Vicario brings highly original and thought-provoking insights to his reassessment of twentieth-century Latin American art. This is a very ambitious volume and one that offers alternative histories of modernity afforded by a close examination of South American, Mexican, and Caribbean art of the 1930s and 1940s."&;Edward J. Sullivan, Helen Gould Shepard Professor in the History of Art, New York University "Hemispheric Integration excels at zooming between the macro and the micro, between a big picture, synthetic view of materiality and mobility and its array of telling details, choice comparisons, and evocative turns of phrase. Jointly they propel the reader toward a deeper understanding of familiar and less familiar episodes in Latin American art history&;and the resonances of this project for 'global contemporary art' today."&;George F.
