Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. New interpretations of the Brazilian master's symbolic repertoire and towering sculptural achievementsPublished with KMEC Books/Ubu.This richly illustrated volume explores the work of the Afro-Brazilian sculptor, writer and cultural advocate Mestre Didi (19172013), uniting more than 60 of his sculptures, offering a rare view of his far-reaching spiritual and artistic legacy, and contextualizing his aesthetic innovations within the prevailing discourses of Brazilian modern art.
