Twentieth-Century Art of Latin America
Jacqueline Barnitz

This highly readable and accessible overview of Latin American art has become a standard in the field. The author treats the subject chronologically from the 1890s to 1990, emphasizing various strains and movements rather than limiting her discussions geographically. She takes a broad, contextual approach, underscoring the influences upon Latin American art and conversely its impact internationally. One minor failing for a book whose title suggests complete coverage of the century is the lack of attention given to the final decade.
