Description
This collection offers an exhaustive journey through Hispano-American visual modernity, from the impact of the Mexican Revolution and the rise of the muralism of Rivera, Orozco, and Siqueiros, to the avant-gardes of rupture such as the Madí movement and Concretism. It integrates fundamental documents of historical photography by Casasola and Modotti, alongside the richness of editorial illustration and the surrealism of authors such as Leonora Carrington. Spanning from the Río de la Plata to the Caribbean, the collection documents the transition toward the abstraction of Jesús Soto and the consolidation of new identity narratives. It represents a pillar of regional heritage, capturing the tension between tradition and progress that defined the aesthetics of the 20th century.
