Richly illustrated scholarly essays by critics, curators, and art historians Regine Basha, Adela Borges, Marcella Echevarría, Antonio Sánchez Gómez, Magdalena Gruneisen, Adriana Kertzer, Ana Elena Mallet, Nessi Pope and Fabiana Lopes, Jorge Rivas Pérez, Gabriela Rangel, Mari Carmen Ramírez, Blanca Serrano, and Lowery Stokes Sims are presented here in this comprehensive volume.
