DESCRIPTION:Joaquin Torres-Garcia and Universal Constructivism\, Presented by Cecilia de Torres\n\n\n\nSpanish-Uruguayan artist\, theorist and art educator Joaquin Torres-Garc a (1874-1949) is renowned for his trademark abstract style of Universal Constructivism based on grid structure and symbolic motifs. After being active in Europe for years\, he returned to his native Montevideo\, Uruguay in 1934\, where he established the Taller Torres-Garcia\, an art workshop that proposed a new constructivist art centered on geometry with roots in ancient American arts and architecture. De Torres and his followers' paintings are well represented in the Stanley and Pearl Goodman Collection of Latin American Art\, which is a generous bequest to the Museum. The lecture coincides with the exhibition: Selections from the Stanley and Pearl Goodman Collection of Latin American Art\, from September 21 to October 20.\n\n\n\nCecilia de Torres is internationally recognized as the leading authority on the work of Joaqu n Torres-Garc a and the artists associated with his Workshop\, The Taller Torres-Garc a (TTG). Ms. de Torres established her gallery in New York in 1993\, after co-curating the exhibition El Taller Torres-Garc a: The School of the South and Its Legacy (1991-1993)\, with Mari Carmen Ram rez. The exhibition was inaugurated at the Museo Reina Sof a in Madrid and was accompanied by an exhibition catalogue.\n\n\n\nThroughout the years\, the Cecilia de Torres\, Ltd.'s exhibitions have aimed to bring about a new appreciation and understanding of Latin American modern and contemporary art. This pertains\, most specifically\, to the movements of Constructivism and Geometric Abstraction\, and spans across media that includes painting\, drawing\, sculpture\, kinetic art\, and ceramics.\n\n\n\nMs. de Torres has also curated and contributed to numerous museum exhibitions\, writes extensively on Torres-Garc a and the artists of the TTG\, and is regularly consulted by museums and auction houses regarding this work.
