Painting, sculpture, photography, and architecture are represented through the nearly three hundred pieces on display, some never before viewed outside their country of origin, by a total of sixty-four artists from Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, Uruguay, Venezuela and Mexico. The exhibition has a specific time frame defined by the dates in which two artists returned to America from Europe: 1934, the year when Joaquín Torres-García settled permanently in Montevideo following his European (and North American) tour, and 1973, when Venezuelan artist Jesus Rafael Soto returned to his native city of Ciudad Bolivar to attend the opening of the museum that carries his name ... The exhibition offers a vision of a Latin America that differs from the normal stereotype: rather than a hasty and cliched identification of the continent with the intense heat of spontaneity, or an association of the concept of the indigenous with that of the tropics and the Caribbean, the work of these artists in fact points to a 'cold' South America: objective, geometrical and rational, and one that gave rise to a fascinating and surprising type of abstract art. 650 0 Art, Abstract |zLatin America |y20th century |vExhibitions. |=^A46008 650 0 Art, Latin American |y20th century |vExhibitions. |=^A583205 650 0 Geometry in art |y20th century |vExhibitions. |=^A628988 700 1 Suárez, Osbel. |=^A1091644 700 1 García, María Amalia, |d1975- |=^A1092130 700 1 Witschey, Erica. |=^A1079784 710 2 Fundación Juan March. |=^A225282 856 42 |uhttp://www.ilibri.casalini.it/toc/60719982.pdf |3TOC 949 N6502.57.A37 C65 2011 |hJOYNER48 |ojmpl |i30372016455641 938 YBP Library Services |bYANK |n4589186 938 Erasmus Boekhandel |bERAA |nNTS0000123851 938 Casalini Libri |bCASA |n60719982 |c65.00 EUR 938 Blackwell Book Service |bBBUS |n4589186 938 Howard Karno Books |bKARN |nHKB2010198338 994 C0 |bERE 596 1 998 2677877
