Description
The Concrete Invention: Patricia Phelps de Cisneros Collection brings together a wealth of work from Latin American artists who transformed European Concrete art in the mid-20th century. Spanning the 1930s to the 1970s, this publication explores the vibrant artistic movements that emerged in cities such as Montevideo, Buenos Aires, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Caracas. The book is organized into five thematic sections: "Geometry," "Illusion," "Dialogue," "Vibration" and "Universalism." It features texts by several of the artists featured in the exhibition, an essay by sound artist Steve Roden, a questionnaire on the legacy of these movements, and geometric-abstract gatefolds designed for the catalogue. Accompanying an exhibition at the Reina Sofía, Concrete Invention provides a unique insight into this pivotal period in Latin American art history.
