"The ongoing destruction of the work of Nicaraguan artists is a bitter counterpart to a decade of brutal terror for which one day, in more civilized times, we may feel a fraction of the shame we should. Meanwhile these marvellous and evocative expressions remind us of what could have been, and yet may be."--Noam Chomsky "David Kunzle has done the Americas a great favor by documenting the glory days of the Sandinista mural movement. Although the murals are "being disappeared," this invaluable resource--and source of hope--remains to inspire future revolutions."--Lucy Lippard, writer and activist "A splendid documentation of a uniquely international public art, much of it now destroyed, during a fascinating period. It will be essential reference for students of public art and of the Nicaraguan experience."--John Pitman Weber, professor of art at Elmhurst College and muralist "David Kunzle's comprehensive, superbly illustrated account is both impassioned and scholarly. His genius lies in tying together the political and the cultural in a way that explains the meaning of political events, the mural phenomenon, and the content of individual murals. His narrative is as exciting as the history he describes. The catalogue of murals is by far the most complete inventory of this remarkable cultural movement published to date."--Eva S. Cockcroft, writer and muralist
