The Cement Sculpture of Dionicio Rodríguez

Beschreibung

Over a period of some twenty years, Mexican-born artisan Dionicio Rodríguez created imaginative sculptures of reinforced concrete that imitated the natural forms and textures of trees and rocks. Patsy Pittman Light has spent a decade documenting the trabajo rústico ("rustic work”) of Rodríguez, along with its antecedents in Europe and Mexico. This volume is a celebration of the life and work of this Latino artisan.
