Published in conjunction with a major exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, <i>Sur moderno</i> features work by artists from Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil and Venezuela--including Lidy Prati, Tomás Maldonado, Rhod Rothfuss, Lygia Clark, Hélio Oiticica, Jesús Rafael Soto and Alejandro Otero--who advanced the achievements of early-20th-century geometric abstraction and built a new modern vision of the region. <p/>This richly illustrated volume highlights a selection of works gifted to MoMA by Patricia Phelps de Cisneros between 1997 and 2016--a donation that has had a transformative impact on the Museum's holdings of Latin American art. The Cisneros Modern Collection, which includes paintings, sculptures and works on paper, allows for in-depth study of the art produced in the region at mid-century, enabling the Museum to represent a more comprehensive, plural, and robust narrative of artistic practices and to demonstrate the integral role Latin America played in the development of modern art.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>This book traces the ways in which abstraction developed and peaked in midcentury Latin America, radically transforming the story of modern art.--Liz Hartman "Publishers Weekly"<br>
