This is the first comprehensive publication devoted to Tomás Sánchez, one of the most important and celebrated living Cuban artists. Sánchez is a commanding realist, although his landscapes are imagined or dreamed. His work is meticulous in its breath-taking detail, but the objective of the artist is not so much the recreation of reality as it is the display of a magical realism. In this respect, Sánchez is closer perhaps to Gabriel García Márquez than to the North American model of hyperrealism. This volume follows the development of Sánchez's work chronologically from his early expressionist paintings to his most recent landscapes.

New Lower Price This magnificent volume is a soaring tribute to the harmonious nature of Brazilian art and culture. Juxtaposing Baroque masterpieces from the 17th and 18th centuries with essential works of Modern and contemporary art as well as indigenous and Afro-Brazilian arts, the book's editors explore the integration of sensorial and spiritual experience in Brazilian art--the union of body and soul. Included are some 350 paintings, sculptures, and decorative objects, ranging from a monumental Baroque altarpiece to contemporary photographic works and installations. Throughout, the text reveals the deep cultural links between the different periods, tracing the indigenous, African and European influences in Brazilian art from the Baroque era to the present.
