Editors' Picks: 11 Things to See in New York's Art World This Week
In its final weeks, Artnet features AS/COA's The Metropolis in Latin America, 1830-1930, as a must see exhibit.
This Getty-organized exhibition looks at 100 years of history in Latin America, as the capital cities of Buenos Aires, Havana, Lima, Mexico City, Rio de Janeiro, and Santiago de Chile were transformed from colonial outposts to monumental metropolises between 1830 and 1930. Rapid socioeconomic change is reflected in photographs, prints, plans, and maps, with architectures that reflects a unique blend of pre-Columbian, Spanish, Portuguese, and other European influences.
