This unique volume aims to promote new models of sustainable
management in the field of contemporary mural art. Cultural
heritage has become an essential tool for society, stressing the
necessity to properly conserve cultural resources in order to
maintain a socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable
development. In this book, the mural "Allegory to Work" by the
artist Felipe Seade, located in Uruguay, is used as a case study.
The work of Felipe Seade, a prominent political mural artist of the
twentieth century, reflects the influence of Mexican heritage and
the socio-political themes of that time, which were commonly used
by the Social Realism art movement. The authors look at the
mural-and its restoration-through the lens of tourism,
globalization, and new interest in cultural heritage. The book
demonstrates that the restoration should be aware that the
perspective of the protagonists must be incorporated in the
intervention process. This first-of-its-kind volume brings together
historical, ethnographic, tourism, and scientific research that
leads to a sustainable project, from the point of view of identity,
economy, politics, and society. This volume, with over 50 color
illustrations and many black and white photos, will be valuable for
college and research libraries, undergraduate and graduate
students, researchers and professors in the field of cultural
heritage and art as well as those involved in community-based
research.

This book puts into context the evolution of mural art in recent
years, particularly the case of the contemporary muralism in
Uruguay. While the focus of this volume, revolves around Uruguay,
the editors demonstrate that circumstances found in Uruguay are
also reflected widely in a large number of cases worldwide. Mural
art has evolved from an elite audience to a more popular objective.
At the same time, it does not lose the necessity of high value
artists that, not only technically but also conceptually, will be
able to connect to the audience and provide a sense of identity and
necessity of preservation of this art. This leads to a down-top
approach, where different actors take part in the process, from the
conceptualization to the conservation. Moreover, mural art has been
studied as a driver of local economic development, attracting
visitors and tourists can access these open-air museums easily.
This book is of interest to students and researchers working in
fine art, heritage and museum studies.
