Vistas 10—Making Space, Making Place: Marking the Americas is dedicated to the Seventh Annual Symposium of Latin American Art held in late March 2023. The seventh symposium marked a return to an in-person format after two years of online programming due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Speakers and moderators from Mexico, Brazil, and various US institutions came together for two days of panels on cartography, geography, and spatial dynamics. Vistas 10 is edited by symposium organizers Corey Loftus, Tatiana Marcel, and Rebecca Yuste. The wide range of topics covered in the symposium is represented in the essays selected for this issue, by Jerónimo Reyes-Retana, Claudia Garay Molina, and Caroline Alciones de Oliveira Leite. The symposium concluded with highly anticipated keynote lectures delivered by Delia Cosentino, associate professor in the history of art and architecture at DePaul University, and Adriana Zavala, Andrew W. Mellon Professor at the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts at the National Gallery and associate professor in the history of art and studies in race, colonialism, and diaspora at Tufts University.
