Two Decades of Excellence

1988-2010

Tamayo was a true pioneer of Modern art. Unlike the politically inspired muralists of his native country, he pondered metaphysical concerns such as the nature of time and man’s place in the universe, becoming a leading innovator in style, method and technique. Tamayo’s work has been displayed in major museums throughout the world. It is influenced by pre-Columbian, yet it strongly retains its Mexican identity.

The Nobel Prize-winning poet Octavio Paz wrote : “If I could express with a single word what it is that distinguishes Tamayo from other painters, I would say without a moment’s hesitation: Sun. For the sun is in all his pictures, whether we see it or not.”
