DESCRIPCIÓN
Alejandro Obregón is one of the greatest Colombian artists of all time and a very important part of the modern movement in our country.
Although some books about his work were published during the artist's lifetime, the country owed him the tribute of a great book that collected chronologically—in the stages that he himself defined—the most representative of his pictorial work: a book that reflected the originality, vitality, evolution and consolidation of that characteristic, unique and coherent style.
The book, sponsored by Grupo Éxito, starts from the initial period of his portraits and cubist incursions of the beginning. Alejandro Obregón is one of the greatest Colombian artists of all time and a very important part of the modern movement in our country.

The book, sponsored by Grupo Éxito, starts from the initial period of his portraits and cubist incursions of the beginning, and is populated with still lifes, condors, barracudas, multicolored birds, mangroves, fish and marine inhabitants that, alongside landscapes, bulls and female torsos, reveal the marvelous use of form and color of this talented artist.
