Emma Reyes

This first publication on Colombian artist Emma Reyes is an introductory overview to the unique painting and drawing practice she developed from the mid-1940s to the early 2000s in Argentina, the United States, Mexico, Italy, Israel, Colombia, and France, where she eventually settled in 1960. The volume gathers together works from her major series of the 1980s and 1990s, as well as essays by French art critic and curator Stéphanie Cottin, a Reyes expert, and renowned Peruvian curator Miguel A. López. Archival documentation, a biography, and excerpts from Reyes' acclaimed childhood memoirs complete the volume.
