Andrea Gallelli Huezo
Department Administrator
Andrea Gallelli Huezo specializes in the art and architecture of Latin America from Pre-Conquest to Modern. Throughout her courses, she explores Latin American history, belief systems, and traditions as displayed in art, material culture, and architecture while emphasizing the interaction between native traditions and imported ideas concerning religion, race, gender, politics, rituals, and daily life. Moreover, in her classroom, she introduces students to the major artistic movements focusing on the regional and global changes that defined, challenged, or shaped Latin American art and culture. Some of her recent courses include Pre-Conquest Art, Latin American Art I, Latin American Art II, Latin American Myth & Ritual, Race & Color in Latin America, Spectacle in Latin America, and ProtestArte. Gallelli Huezo’s research interests include spectacle, processions, and theatre in Latin America, Spain, and Islam. Her current research project explores the intersection of spectacle, memory, and senses in Latin America.
In addition to her academic role, Andrea Gallelli Huezo brings extensive operational and personnel management experience to our Department and the broader Georgetown University community.
