GUILLERMO ROUX GEB - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Guillermo Roux, whose paintings are represented in museums and private collections around the globe, has experienced a meteoric rise in the international art world over the past two decades. This volume is a comprehensive survey of the ever-changing oeuvre of Argentina's foremost living artist, as well as a chronicle of his colorful life and how its influences have honed his sharp, surreal perspective. These pages display the fruits of his constant experimentation - they abound with watercolor still lifes, portraiture, and landscapes populated with lively figures, alongside his oils and vibrant collages.
Roux burst onto the international scene in 1975, when he won the prestigious First International Prize of the XIII Biennale in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
As his work grew in depth and scope, his reputation expanded and his personal style evolved. Over the decades, his unique, surrealist vision emerged, further establishing Roux as one of this century's most innovative artistic minds. Exhibitions in Munich, Paris, and New York, as well as a 1988 one-person show of fifty works at the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C., solidified Roux's presence on the global art scene. Noted art critic Judd Tully chronicles this evolution, while Roux reveals his own personal struggles with, and eventual domination of, idea and form.
Guillermo Roux is published to coincide with a major retrospective in the Museo de Bellas Artes in Buenos Aires, as well as an upcoming exhibition at The Marlborough Gallery in New York.
