2017rif. 200328Boston: McMullen Museum of Art Boston College 2017. Paperback. Good Wraps are lightly edge/shelfworn; interior is clean and crisp; binding is solid. Purple wraps with colorful illustration and off-white lettering; 181 pp.; richly illustrated. Cuban painter Rafael Soriano 1920-2015 was an acclaimed master of geometric abstraction and a global figure in the twentieth-century art world his work resonated with such international artists of Latin American origin as Roberto Matta Rufino Tamayo and Wifredo Lam. As a result of the revolution in Cuba in 1959 Soriano left the country in 1962 for the United States. The effect of the Cuban revolution on his art as well as his aesthetics in general are the focus of this book an unprecedented examination of his entire oeuvre. Featuring more than ninety paintings pastels and drawings this bilingual English-Spanish catalog begins with a contextual analysis of Soriano s relationship to the Cuban avant-garde and his position within the emerging mid-century modernists. Essays then trace his evolving styles examining his work through the lens of surrealism and European and Latin American transnational aesthetics. The idea of exile and struggle is a leitmotif and is framed within questions of transcendence and spirituality. -- WorldCat. McMullen Museum of Art, Boston College paperback books
