Tells the story of how the US used modern art as a cultural defense strategy in South America during World War II. The Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs supported traveling exhibitions of American paintings, furniture, and design competitions for artists across both hemispheres. Olga Herrera shows how the program was an unprecedented public-private model of support for the arts.
