Mestizos de Aponte a Belkis Ayón

Este recopilatorio de textos breves no es mas que una serie de preguntas y respuestas, absolutamente heterogeneas, en torno al arte, pues es el el que trata de imponer un sentido a nuestra vida, tan efimera como insensata (Felix de Azua). Acudimos a el en busca de un saber y ver mas, de encontrar claves entre el cielo y la carne, entre la ilusion y la realidad, entre las sombras y las luces. En este caso, son cuestiones que surgen como una amalgama mientras se contempla y se escruta una razon que ha de alimentar contra el clamor oscuro.

The Mexican painter, Rufino Tamayo (1899-1991) was first recognized in a 1930s publication on the contemporary artists of Mexico. He lived in Paris and in New York for several years but did not become known in the States until after an exhibition of his work at the Philips Collection in Washington, D.C., in 1978 followed by a major retrospective of his work at the Guggenheim Museum in 1979.
