“Latorre’s book is a timely publication that coincides with perhaps one of the most transformative moments in Chilean democracy … Democracy on the Wall is an important contribution to the scarce scholarship on street art in the Global South and it shows how a scholarly endeavor can simultaneously represent a transnational and transformative personal, pedagogical, and community practice.” —Magadalena Novoa, H-Net
“A cutting-edge piece of art history, hybridized with cultural studies, and shaped by U.S. people of color studies, attentive in a serious way to the historical and cultural context in which muralism and graffiti art arise and make sense in Chile.” —Laura E. Peréz
“A detailed, incisive, intelligent, and well-argued exploration of visual politics in Chile that explores the way muralists, grafiteros, and other urban artists have inserted their aesthetics into the urban landscape. Not only is Latorre a savvy, patient sleuth but her dialogues with artists and audiences offer the reader precious historical context.” —Ilan Stavans
