Ad Usum: To Be Used is the second volume in the series Focus on Latin American Art and Agency, which is dedicated to contemporary cultural agents—a term that is perhaps best understood through the words of Reyes himself: “changing our individual habits has no degree of effectiveness”, as “progress is only significant if you start to multiply by 10, by 100, by 1,000”.

Rather than merely illustrating his work, this collection of images, interviews, and critical essays is intended as an apparatus for multiplying the possibilities of art becoming a resource for the common good.
