This major retrospective of Joaquín Torres-García features works ranging from the late 19th century to the 1940s, including drawings, paintings, collages, sculptures, and original artist notebooks and rare publications. Torres-García is one of the most complex and important artists of the first half of the 20th century, and his work opened up transformational paths for modern art on both sides of the Atlantic. 
Starting with the large figurative fresco and related drawings from 1916, to the cacophonous street scenes he did while living in New York, to his toys and small notched, abstract figures with rearrangeable parts, to his collages and one-of-kind books, to the painted wooden constructions he did from the 1920s until the end of his life, and the eclectic works of his last decade, the viewer realizes that Torres- García was a protean artist.
