The work of Cuban-born artist Zilia Sánchez is characterized by her distinctive approach to formal abstraction through the use of undulating silhouettes, muted color palettes, and a personal, sensual language.

Produktbeschreibung
The work of Cuban-born artist Zilia Sánchez is characterized by her distinctive approach to formal abstraction through the use of undulating silhouettes, muted color palettes, and a personal, sensual language. Sánchez s exceptional formed canvases, which range in scale from the intimate to the monumental and span fifty years of artistic production, have seldom been seen outside of Puerto Rico, where she has lived and worked since 1972. Produced in conjunction with the artist s first solo exhibition at Galerie Lelong New York, this publication focuses on Sánchez s shaped paintings made three-dimensional through her unique method of stretching canvases over hand-molded wooden frameworks.
Autorenporträt
Zilia Sanchez is an avant-garde artist who from the 1950s began to question the established canons of abstraction. She is a great visionary whose works should be in the most important museums of contemporary art in Latin America. Sanchez is an artist who has developed an original and powerful visual discourse full of rich symbolism which comes close to our most basic passions as well as to the most unexplored heights of spiritual feeling. She is an indefatigable poet of love who has redefined the canvas, transforming it into erotic maps, a skin full of desire, tattoos, clouds, embraces, lovers who have no fear of farewells. A Cuban painter who settled in Puerto Rico in the 1960s, Sanchez is small in stature but a great figure over the last four decades.
