The diverse contributions to this volume bring focus to the important issue of representation in Indigenous arts of Latin America, seeking to upend Euro-American approaches to reading images that often predominate in scholarship.--Andrew James Hamilton, Art Institute of Chicago, author of The Royal Inca Tunic: A Biography of an Andean Masterpiece This volume digs deep to seed an exciting new approach to the arts and cultures of Indigenous Latin America. Its chapters encourage a refreshed kind of theoretical regimen that moves away from traditional frames (e.g., iconography, Cartesian binaries, and Western epistemologies). And they combine to offer novel considerations of materiality by privileging natively held beliefs and practices centered on making, objects-subjects, and their social relations. This compact volume succeeds because the contributors find value in the region's heterogeneity and an openness to Indigenous knowledge and perspectives. It is a volume well worth visiting and revisiting.--George Lau, University of East Anglia, author of An Archaeology of Ancash: Stones, Ruins, and Communities in Andean Peru
