Author Description

This volume focuses on the various systems of visual communication created by, or associated, with the imperial Inca state. The papers advance understanding of Inca forms of representation, as well as Andean systems more generally, by attending to the formal, contextual, functional, and ideological processes through which they are constructed and within which they are embedded. In essence, the volume constitutes a joint reflection on the important themes of representation and material systems of communication in the Andean context. Spanish text.
