Summary
The exhibition reveals a unique artist, creator of a mythology of the Río de la Plata expressed through 30 oils, watercolors and drawings by the great master Pedro Figari (Uruguayan 1861-1938), some of them emblematic and others never exhibited before in Argentina. The artworks are part of the holdings of the National Museum of Visual Arts and the Figari Museum, both from Uruguay. "Curated by Pablo Thiago Rocca, director of the Museo Figari, and organized jointly by the Museo Nacional de Artes Visuales of Uruguay, under Enrique Aguerre, and the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes of Argentina, Figari: mito y creación proposes a joint vision of art movements in the región -that is, in Uruguay, Brazil, and Argentina- that are not often conceived together. -Andrés Duprat" (HKB Translation) --Page 12
