At this symposium, presented in conjunction with the Johnson Museum of Art exhibition “Colonial Crossings: Art, Identity, and Belief in the Spanish Americas,” established scholars whose work encompasses a variety of regions and approaches to colonial Latin American art history offer new methodologies seeking to expand the boundaries of this visual culture. The symposium was made possible through the generous support of the Carl & Marilynn Thoma Foundation.
