Juan Munoz: Artists Sketchbook

Descripción

This is a collection of 20 previously unpublished drawings from one of 20th-century Spain's most celebrated artists. Juan Munoz (1953-2001) was an internationally celebrated Spanish sculptor, draughtsman and painter. Educated at the Central School of Art and Design in London and the Pratt Graphic Design Centre in New York, Munoz is known for his unsettling sculptures of individuals or groups placed in architectural settings. He described himself as a 'storyteller' and created sculptures in a 'narrative' manner, which broke with tradition. This artist's sketchbook consists of 20 original and previously unpublished drawings by Juan Munoz, produced by the author in 1992. The drawings are based on the short story An Outpost of Progress by Joseph Conrad, included originally in the collection Tales of Unrest (1898).
