ReVision by Victoria I. Lyall and Jorge F. Rivas Perez

This book by Hirmer considers what makes the Americas the Americas. With essays by leading scholars of Latin American art history, the publication explores the ways in which the past continues to exert an influence on communities throughout the region. Artists such as Juan Enrique Bedoya, Clarissa Tossin and Cecilia Vicuna draw on centuries of imagery from both before and after the Conquest to grapple with questions of identity and displacement. The essays in this catalog provide a framework for understanding the region's nuanced history of creation, destruction and renewal.
