ReVisión: A New Look at Art in the Americas considers what makes the Americas the Americas. With essays by leading scholars of Latin American art history, the lavishly illustrated publication explores the ways in which the past continues to exert an influence on communities throughout the region. Artists such as Alexander Apóstol, Juan Enrique Bedoya, Johanna Calle, Chiachio & Giannone, Ronny Quevedo, Sandy Rodríguez, Eduardo Sarabia, Clarissa Tossin and Cecilia Vicuña draw on centuries of imagery from both before and after the Conquest to grapple with questions of identity, exploitation of natural resources and displacement. The essays in this book provide a framework for understanding the region's nuanced history of creation, destruction and renewal. They are written by Beverly Adams, newly appointed curator of Latin American art at MoMA; Julieta González, independent curator, Mexico City; and Elena Shtromberg, leading scholar of Latin American video art.
