In May 2004, the ASU Art Museum broke down the barriers between the United States and Latin America and reinstalled its former American Gallery as the new Americas Gallery. The Americas Gallery features artwork from North, Central and South America, grouped by three themes: Faces, Work and Space/Place. This shift replaces the standard chronologic installation with topics addressed in works from all of the Americas. The diversity of art forms creates interactions among works of art, suggesting new affinities between contemporary and historic; painting and video; Latin and North American artists. In the center of the Americas Gallery are two components that will periodically change. The first is Spotlight, featuring an artwork of special interest; and the second is the Interdisciplinary Gallery, displaying work selected by guest curators who can demonstrate a link between the art and their own lives and disciplines. Local Tempe High School students and art teachers curated the Interdisciplinary Gallery's current exhibition, Borders, featuring the work of Luis Jimenez. Spotlight currently features an art historical 'whodunit,' an exploration of an unauthenticated painting by John James Audubon that includes dueling expert opinions.
