Carroll’s expanded borders, made possible by the parsing of performative allegory, open avenues for examining other (non)sites shaped by NAFTA and will undoubtedly influence future studies of the period. * Latin American and Latinx Visual Culture *\u003cbr\u003eCarroll’s [\u003ci\u003eREMEX\u003c\/i\u003e] is an attempt to write a history of Mexican art of [the NAFTA era] and, in so doing, to propose an alternative lineage for Latin American Conceptualism. * ARTMargins *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrelude.
