This catalogue focuses on work produced by the Chilean-born artist Roberto Sebastian Matta from 1939-1948 when he lived in exile in New York. Matta, who has spent most of his life living and working in Europe, occupies a unique and pivotal place in the history of American art of this period. Of all the surrealists in exile in New York during these years, Matta formed the closest links with American artists of his own generation and served as a catalytic force in communicating ideas about surrealist processes and relating to the development of a new language of abstract painting. Matta in America includes full-color illustrations of approximately twenty paintings and twenty drawings made during the artist's American sojourn. An essay tracing the development in the 1940s of Matta's work and highlighting his interactions with other artists of the period is complemented by an essay by art historian William Rubin. Originally written for the Centre Georges Pompidous's 1985 Matta monograph, Rubin's essential text, "Matta in the United States: A Personal Note," has never before been published in English.

(Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque created a revolution so ...)
Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque created a revolution so sweeping that today, over 75 years later, its influences still ar felt not onlyin art, but also in architecture, music and literature. In a sense, their experiments in Cubism were artistic parallels to other pioneering events of the period such as the Wright brothers' historic breakthrough in aviation. Picasso even affectionately called Braque "Wilbourg," in admiration of Wilbur Wright, whose spectacular air demonstrations caputred the imagination of the French in 1908. This book represents the Museum of Medern Art's exhibition. Philip Morris is pleased to help present this truibute to the enduring value of creativity, experimenation, and innovation, qualities we think are as important to business as they are to the arts.
