Published in conjunction with the first major, all-inclusive retrospective of the artist's work in the US since the 1970s, this richly illustrated publication presents Torres-Garc a's long and wide-ranging career, from the late 19th century to the 1940s, and includes drawings, paintings, objects, sculptures and rare manuscripts.

Joaqu n Torres-Garcia was born in Montevideo, Uruguay, in 1874. By the turn of the century he had relocated to Spain, where he attended the Escola Municipal d'Arts I Oficis, the Escola Oficial de Belles Artes La Llotja and the Academia Baixas, becoming a central figure in the Catalonian artistic scene of the early 20th century. He lived in Madrid, Paris, New York, Livorno and Villefranche-sur-mer, before returning to Montevideo in 1934, where he established the Asociaci n de Arte Constructivo, followed by the Taller Torres-Garc a, key platforms in his pedagogical enterprise alongside his numerous published writings and conferences. He died in Montevideo in 1949.","url":"https://cdon.no/produkt/joaquin-torres-garcia-57d3100b0ce94e3e/","image":"https://cdn.cdon.com/media-dynamic/images/product/cloud/store/Book/000/033/826/522/33826522-11453-org.jpg","sku":"P23927299","gtin":"9780870709753","brand":{"@type":"Brand","name":""},"offers":{"@type":"Offer","url":"https://cdon.no/produkt/joaquin-torres-garcia-57d3100b0ce94e3e/","priceCurrency":"NOK","price":559,"priceValidUntil":"2025-05-05T23:59:59.999+00:00","itemCondition":"https://schema.org/NewCondition","availability":"https://schema.org/InStock","seller":{"@type":"Organization","name":"CDON"},"shippingDetails":{"@id":"#shipping_policy","@type":"OfferShippingDetails","deliveryTime":{"@type":"ShippingDeliveryTime","handlingTime":{"@type":"QuantitativeValue","minValue":0,"maxValue":1,"unitCode":"DAY"},"transitTime":{"@type":"QuantitativeValue","minValue":7,"maxValue":10,"unitCode":"DAY"}}}}}
