Potosi is a Bolivian mining town, whose splendor in the sixteenth century eclipsed that of London or Paris. The silver extracted there was instrumental in the development of early European capitalism, and spawned the production of an "Andean Baroque" style of painting. Here, contemporary artists respond to its legacy.
