A Handbook of Latinx Art

"This much-anticipated volume is exactly what we need to incorporate Latinx art as a key, required component in the curriculum. Authored by two of the most recognized intellectual leaders in the field, this project is an essential resource for scholars working across the fields of art history and visual culture studies and could not come at a better time."--Arlene Dávila, author of Latinx Art "In their Handbook of Latinx Art, Rocío Aranda-Alvarado and Debroah Cullen-Morales highlight for us the voices of artists and critics, along with the possibilities within exhibition making encompassed under the rubric of Latinx creativity. In these expansive discussions of art of the last century we uncover ever more of the Americanness in American art. A Handbook of Latinx Art is a stellar compilation that comes at the right time. It is a much-needed volume that helps us continue writing and imagining the ongoing story of American art through a generous Latinx lens."--Kellie Jones, author of South of Pico: African American Artists in Los Angeles in the 1960s and 1970s "This collection is an invaluable resource that positions 'Latinx art' as a complex and diverse practice at the intersections of American, Caribbean, and Latin American art. Drawing on key works, it introduces readers to an eye-opening critical dialogue taking place in the United States since the 1970s among artists, curators, and scholars."--Chon Noriega, coauthor of Home--So Different, So Appealing
