This edited volume examines the history of abstract art across
Latin America after 1945. This form of art grew in popularity
across the Americas in the postwar period, often serving to affirm
a sense of being modern and the right of Latin America to assume
the leading role Europe had played before World War II. Latin
American artists practiced gestural and geometric abstraction,
though the history of art has favored the latter. Recent
scholarship, for instance, has focused on geometric abstraction
from Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela. The book aims to expand the
map and consider this phenomenon as it developed in neglected
regions such as Central America and the Andes, investigatinghow
this style came to stand in for Latin American contemporary art.
