"Featuring the work of 42 artists and collectives from six South American countries, the beautifully illustrated publication offers detailed insights into the art from this continent made between the 1960s and now. Six bilingual (Spanish/English) essays and interviews complement the artist page texts and offer thought-provoking meditations on the histories, cultures and politics of the region. More than a catalogue of the exhibition, Space to Dream is a rich introduction to art from South America and an authoritative addition to the growing Global South conversation. Contributions by: Guilherme Bueno, Gustavo Buntinx, Beatriz Bustos Oyanedel, Stephen Cleland, Maya Errázuriz, Ticio Escobar, Marcela Fuentealba, Marisol García, Rosa Gubay, Amparo Irarrázaval, Emma Jameson, John Mutambu, Sergio Rojas, Daniela Schroder, Zara Stanhope, Lucía Vodanovic and Julia Waite."--Gallery website.
