Nierman: Genesis de Un Sueno

Nierman: Genesis de un Sueno is a celebration of the painting, sculpture, and tapestry of this prolific and visionary artist. Dazzling four-color plates capture both the rich detail and the striking colors of individual works, while other photographs, often in gatefold, reflect the juxtaposition of painting and sculpture at the exhibition. To turn the pages of this book is to be transported into a dreamworld that recreates the dawning of the universe.

Although much of the Western world has sustained a simplistic impression of Mexican painting, Nierman's work deals in compelling abstract images that defy categorization. It has played a leading role in the extraordinary drama that is modern Mexican art and is now represented in museums around the world. Nierman: Genesis de un Sueno is an unsurpassed testament to the talent of this extraordinary artist.
