Throughout the 20th century and into the 21st, artists from Latin America have embraced photography as a means of capturing their surroundings, documenting episodes of social injustice and political upheaval, and constructing images of national identity. Photographs and video work evoke a potent sense of place, some in a literal sense and others metaphorically. The selected photographs reflect distinctly national realities, cultural idiosyncrasies, and subtle political undertones. //The Politics of Place, Phoenix Art Museum
