Homage Negret Sculptor

At the beginning of the seventies of the last century, the well-known art critic Marta Traba affirmed that the Colombian Edgar Negret was not only the best sculptor in Colombia and Latin America but one of the greats in the world. I was right. The momentum that the artist's career has gained since then does not seem to be extinguished. Proof of this are his daring and incessant forays into shapes and materials, techniques and color; its fascinating turns; its fruitful encounters and reunions with the cultural legacies of the pre-Hispanic past and the evocative results that derived from them. In other words, its marvelous creative evolution. This book, which displays in full color and in a surprising thematic grouping a very wide selection of the artist's life journey, allows you to verify the strength of his creations and the seductive reasons hidden behind the impeccable technique and scrupulous handling of the elements that the artist submit to your lucky intuition.
