About this book
Catalogue of a selection of Pre-Columbian carved stone works of art, and "how this variety of expressions had arisen in environmental settings, as diverse as those in Mesoamerica, in only a few places in the world. However, another facet of the works created by the ancient sculptors in stone always fascinated me -nothing stopped the artist from creating pieces ranging from the most complex abstraction to the purest realism in pre-Hispanic art. Today I would like to present a new selection of nine pieces from different Mesoamerican cultures that, in my opinion, best express these ideas."--Page [9].
