Explore the award-winning book series

The award-winning A Ver: Revisioning Art History book series stems from the conviction that individual artists and their coherent bodies of work are the foundation for a meaningful and diverse art history. This series explores the cultural, aesthetic, and historical contributions of Chicano, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Dominican, and other US Latino artists.
