More Description A comprehensive survey on the abstract artist Joaquín Torres-García, best known for his semi-abstract paintings of universal symbols, from the private collection of the family of the artist - many published for the first time. There was a Torres-García retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York (Oct. 2015-Feb. 2016) but these works were not exhibited; the MoMA book focused largely on Torres-Garcia's modernist abstractions, and this includes all periods of the artist's career as well as his writings that have never been published. This book will appeal to fans of the international modernist art movement (Arp, Kandinsky, Mondrian).
