Few artists have managed to create a world as distinctive as that of Fernando Botero, instantly recognizable worldwide for its balance between inventive volumetric forms and a brilliant sense of color \u2014meticulous compositions painted with nearly invisible brushstrokes, an expression of opulence and sensuality that radiates a sense of unity. Botero\u2019s art exudes monumentality, and his sculptures accentuate this.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The spectacular, hand-bound coffee-table book \u2018Fernando Botero\u2019<\/em> From Assouline\u2019s Ultimate Collection features a special selection of the most important works from every period of Botero\u2019s unique and instantly recognizable body of work. The book was compiled in close collaboration with the renowned artist himself and is presented in a linen clamshell case, complete with white gloves and the signature Assouline canvas carrying bag.<\/p>\n

For sixty-five turbulent years, Botero strove for excellence in art, mastering many techniques and creating an impressive body of work comprising more than 3,000 paintings, over 200 sculptures, and at least 12,000 drawings. Although he enjoyed an exceptional position as one of the most successful contemporary artists, Fernando Botero continued to explore with the same \u2018combative\u2019 attitude he had in his early years. He wanted to learn a little more every day, because, for him, an artist was never \u2018perfect,\u2019 and the process of acquiring knowledge was never-ending. \u201eOne can never claim to know how to paint,\u201d he said. \u201eIt\u2019s important never to lose your strong inner sense or the determination to develop your personal style as an artist.\u201d<\/p>\n
