The book deals with exhibitions in context: large exhibition projects of plastic arts dedicated to Latin American art, carried out in the United States during a short period of time (1987-1992) in certain museums in this country. The precise problem it addresses has to do with the forms of representation of Latin America from certain exhibition spaces. The axis of analysis is placed on how this particular cultural region is represented, described and interpreted from the exhibition as a specific device. In this sense, a map is drawn of the representations of Latin America in the United States in a period of peculiar intensity in terms of exhibitions, studies and publications, interest of the press and art criticism, as well as strong activity of the art market: a boom of Latin American plastic arts, as it has been called.
