Published to accompany a major exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, the catalogue features works by artists working in Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, and Venezuela – including Lygia Clark, Hélio Oiticica, Lygia Pape, Jesús Rafael Soto, Alejandro Otero and Tomás Maldonado – who advanced the achievements of geometric abstraction in the early twentieth century, and built a new modern vision of the region.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe catalogue highlights a selection of works gifted to MoMA by Patricia Phelps de Cisneros between 1993 and 2016, which had a transformative impact on the Museum’s holdings of Latin American art. The Cisneros collection, which includes paintings, sculptures, and works on paper, allows for in-depth study of art produced in the region during this period, allowing the Museum to represent a more comprehensive, plural, and robust narrative of artistic practices that demonstrate the integral role of Latin America in the establishment of modern art.","brand":"The Museum of Modern Art, New York","offers":[{"title":"Bargain","offer_id":42817355579472,"sku":"9781633450707B","price":27.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/8173\/5760\/files\/9781633450707-l.jpg?v=1785864661","url":"https:\/\/bookoutlet.com\/products\/sur-moderno-journeys-of-abstraction-the-patricia-phelps-de-c-9781633450707b","provider":"Book Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
