Review

"In art, as long as you have ideas and think, you are bound to deform nature. Art is deformation." So says Fernando Botero--artist of voluptuous bodies and distorted landscapes, whose paintings and sculptures challenge our conceptions of size and space. Collected within this colorful edition are 62 works from Latin America's best-known living artist. Commentaries on every featured piece give fascinating insight into the world of Botero--a place of opulence, abundance, and fantasy. --Naomi Gesinger
