The exhibition offered a new perspective on Latin American photography from 1960 to today, focusing on the relationship between text and the photographic image.

In addition to scholarly texts and artist bios, descriptions of works and a detailed timeline provide a deeper understanding of the visual languages specific to the continent. Chronicling the vital legacy of Latin American artists, the book shows the scope of their influence beyond their cultural and geographical territory.
