Description: London: Royal Academy, 2014. 29cm., hardcover, 192pp., 150 color illus. Summary: Drawn from the Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, the world’s leading collection of 20th-century Latin American art, this volume showcases works by such major artists as Juan Melé, Sérgio de Camargo, Lygia Clark, Milton Dacosta, Hélio Oiticica, Lygia Pape, and Alejandro Otero. Accompaning an exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts, Radical Geometry looks at how, from the 1930s through the 1970s, distinct artistic movements emerged in Montevideo, Buenos Aires, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Caracas, innovative forms of expression that reflected the continent’s new optimism. Focusing on the impact of such artists as Albers, Mondrian, Malevich, and Calder, all of whom influenced the Latin American Abstract Expressionists, the book explores the ways in which artists captured this positive spirit.
