Diálogo entre poesía y pintura [Paperback] Varios

When two geniuses meet and dialogue with each other, words become passion, strokes transcend time, the situation becomes history. One of these encounters was witnessed by the Viscaya Building, on Avenida Bucareli, Colonia Juárez, Mexico City. It used to be called colonia Americana and there, at number 128, between the streets of Tolsá and General Prim, architect Roberto Servín built in the 1920's a majestic French-style building, where important artists, diplomats, politicians and businessmen lived. There, two geniuses of the 20th century meet: Pita Amor and Nacho Ortiz. There they developed a great friendship, a dialogue between two artists of which this book bears witness. The central part of the book is built by a series of twenty canvases by Ignacior Ortiz, which he exhibited in 1984, and on which Pita Amor wrote short poems, unpublished to this day. Twenty encounters between strokes inspired by iconic women and a luminous and quick look from the poet. Ortiz's paintings of women reflect Pablo Picasso's strong influence, with whom he became friends during his stay in France.
