5.0 out of 5 stars Ruben Gallo is a Genius!
Ruben Gallo is a genius. Never before has art been better used to explicate the weird, wooly, cilantro-ey world of Mexican culture. This is the rare thing -- an art-culture page turner. This book is the perfect dinner guest -- smart, witty, and with perfect phrasing. I endorse it!

1.0 out of 5 stars There are much better books on this subject
I can't think of too many things less dynamic than a paperback with b&w photos of art ... a b&w rainbow perhaps? If budget was the primary consideration, it probably would have been been better to publish on Kindle or some type of electronic version instead of printing on cheap pulp. If you can't do it right, don't do it at all.
