"This important compendium surveys and explores in rich detail the history and role of museums as arbiters and advocates for art from the region and in distinct Latin American contexts. It is a must read for scholars, professionals and students of Latin America and its art and cultural politics."
- Adriana Zavala, Tufts University
"Art Museums of Latin America is, without a doubt, a compilation that opens a panorama of study that will allow us to not only learn more about the local processes but also, as the editors posit, to reformulate the role of the regional institution in the context of global museum studies."
- Caiana
"...the majority of the chapters feed this argument, showing that museums are not the result of policies from above but of the initiative of collectives, groups, or individuals who must seek the resources and respond to the interests of politics so that their ideas end up succeeding."
- Latin American & Latinx Visual Culture
"Art Museums of Latin America advances the study of the history of art and museology in Latin America, extends the geopolitical limits in order to question precepts, increases the knowledge of these themes in English-speaking countries, and proposes a structure of closer alliances between the Americas."
