Synopsis
Intensamente activo desde hace más de medio siglo, Manuel Felguérez (1928) se ha consolidado como uno de los más destacados artistas mexicanos, siendo fundamental su participación en la renovación del escenario cultural latinoamericano. Su obra nunca ha dejado de renovarse, virtud de una creatividad al mismo tiempo inquieta, rigurosa y sistemática. Dos denominadores comunes de la gran variedad de soportes y medios artísticos que ha abordado son su apuesta por la abstracción como campo abierto a una amplia gama de recursos compositivos y expresivos, y el equilibrio que logra entre emotividad y racionalidad.
El libro también reúne la selección de obra pictórica y escultórica comprendida en la exposición, así como una semblanza cronológica de su vida y contexto histórico, convirtiéndose en una excelente manera de acercarse, desde varias perspectivas, al legado de Manuel Felguérez.

Manuel Felguerez : Constructive Invention
Seller: BWS BKS, Ferndale, NY, U.S.A.
Seller rating 2 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: New. A painter of rare independent vision, with an oeuvre that now stretches back a half-century, Manuel Felguerez (born 1928) is without doubt one of Mexico's most outstanding artists. His abstract paintings of the 1950s and 1960s presented expressively worked surfaces and a scratchy mark-making; later he arrived at the work for which he is best known, abstractions of a more classical bent, that evoke the cylindrical geometries of Fernand Leger and Francis Picabia. But from the start, Felguerez's painting has been characterized by its earthy feel and warm hues. This superbly produced monograph includes essays on Felguerez by Dore Ashton, who reflects on the artist's influence both in Mexico and abroad, Mexican writer Juan Villoro, who supplies a personal portrait, and analyses of the work by Jorge Reynoso and Alberto Gonzalez. Alongside a wealth of excellent color illustrations, this monograph provides a detailed contextualizing chronology of the artist's life and times. Seller Inventory # 87327
