We speak with Cornell art historians Andrew C. Weislogel and Juliana Fagua Arias about Colonial Crossings, an exhibition on the art of Colonial Latin America at the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art at Cornell. This exhibition, running until December of this year, examines work predominantly created by Indigenous, Black, Asian, and mixed-race artists during the period of Spanish colonial rule. These artists hail from Mexico, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines.
