About this book
"Catalog raissoné of the work of Manuel Rendón, a pioneer modernist in Ecuador and the Americas, published on occasion of the centenary of the artist (Guayaquil, 1894). This book is the most complete study on Rendón to date. Many scholars have overlooked the artist when analyzing the context of modernity in 20th-century Latin America. Well documented, book traces the career of Rendón since his beginnings with the school of Paris in 1916, his flirtation with indigenismo at the end of the 1930s, and his final and definitive journey into geometric abstraction from early 1940s to his death in 1980. An important effort with excellent results"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
