Lygia Clark: Painting as an Experimental, 1948–1958

Lygia Clark: Painting as an Experimental, 1948–1958 presents a reexamination of Clark’s crucial formative years. In this volume, readers can delve into the artist’s production from this period, when Clark was experimenting between figuration and abstraction to articulate a language that defined her mature works. The essays by Geaninne Gutiérrez-Guimarães—curator of the exhibition—, Adele Nelson, and Paulo Miyada, as well as a chronology compiled by Julia M. Vázquez and selected bibliography offer an overview of the first decade of Clark’s artistic career.
