Essay Excerpt

"After the Frente Sandinista de Liberación Nacional (FSLN) seized power over the Somoza dictatorship in Nicaragua in 1979, many of the revolutionaries turned to art. They painted murals on public structures such as walls, buildings, and fences which depicted their victory, documented Nicaragua’s past, and imagined its new future. Because these murals have specific and significant cultural-political value, it might be surprising that their importance extended beyond Nicaragua’s borders, that they serve as emblems of transnational solidarity. In The Murals of Revolutionary Nicaragua, 1979–1992, David Kunzle explains that many ‘“internationalists,”’ or non-national artists, gave of their time and money to travel to Nicaragua and paint these large-scale works in collaboration with local artists."
