Abstract
National institutions in the United States such as the Smithsonian’s Archives of American Art are finally bringing attention and resources to the artistic practice of Latinos as well as Latin American artists residing in the US. As more institutions collect, preserve, and exhibit Latino and Latin American art, and as more scholars and universities engage in these histories, access to archives will play a critical role in shaping the future of these fields. This edited interview with C. Ondine Chavoya, professor of art history at Williams College; Olga Herrera, director of the Inter-University Program for Latino Research in Washington, DC; Tey Marianna Nunn, director and chief curator of the Art Museum and Visual Arts Program at the National Hispanic Cultural Center; and Adriana Zavala, professor of art history at Tufts University and director of the US Latinx Art Forum (USLAF) explores how scholars today are transforming their research practice thanks to the Latino collections at the Archives and elsewhere.
