'Tarsila do Amaral: Cannibalizing Modernism' is one of Roberta Smith's Best Art Books of 2019 for the NY Times

Congratulations MASP, publisher of Tarsila do Amaral: Cannibalizing Modernism, one of Roberta Smith's Best Art Books of 2019 for the New York Times. "In this lavishly illustrated, multivoiced and comprehensive catalog, some dozen curators, critics and writers insistently create more space between the work of this singular and singularly Brazilian artist and the European influences she absorbed in Paris in the early 1920s," Smith writes. "Factoring in Tarsila’s upper-class origins (she was always called by her first name) and Brazil’s social turmoil, they approach her work from many angles—topography, primitivism, popular culture and even contemporary performance art—in ways both precise and expansive." Featured image is "Urutu Viper (Urutu)" (1928).
