Sinopsis del producto

Mexican Modern Painting from the Andrés Elaisten Collection presents eighty fundamental works by more than forty outstanding Mexican artists active in the first half of the twentieth century, This period was one of great creativity, intense experimentation, and cultural development, and the artists and patrons of the works in this collection were intensely driven by the need to create an aesthetic identity that would represent México as a nation state.

In addition to providing an overview of the art and history of México between 1900 and 1950, this publication offers an unique opportunity to explore the Andrés Blaisten Collection, the most complete collection of early twentieth-century art in México. These paintings have been assembled over a period of thirty years through meticulous research and passionate commitment and have become, together, an indispensible reference for anyone interested in Mexican art.
