Book Launch - Circus: Paintings and Works on Paper by Fernando Botero
Please join Americas Society for the launch of Fernando Botero’s book Circus: Paintings and Works on Paper. Books will be available for purchase at the event.
Overview
Inspired by a traveling circus he encountered in a small Mexican town on the Pacific coast, Fernando Botero uses bright colors and unexpected movement to celebrate the poetry of the circus in Circus: Paintings and Works on Paper. This latest title marks the first time the complete circus series has ever been published together as a collection and represents all of the esteemed artist’s work on one of his favorite subjects.
Americas Society hosted the launch of Fernando Botero’s book Circus: Paintings and Works on Paper. Botero was interviewed by Gina Tarver, assistant professor of art history at Texas State University. A book signing session followed the presentation.
