Some of these artists used novel synthetic materials, creating objects that offered an alternative to established traditions in painting-proposing that these objects become part of everyday, concrete reality. Combining art historicaland scientific analysis, experts from the Getty Conservation Institute and Getty Research Institute are collaborating with the Coleccio n Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, a world-renowned collection of Latin American art, to research the formal strategies and material decisions of these artists working in the concrete and neo-concrete vein.'Making Art Concrete' presents works by Lygia Clark, Willys de Castro, Judith Lauand, Rau l Lozza, Tomas Maldonado, Helio Oiticica, and Rhod Rothfuss, among others with new spectacular photography. The photographs, along with information about the now-invisible processes that determine the appearance of these works, are key to interpreting the artists' technical choices as well as the objects themselves. Indeed, this volume sheds further light on the social, political, and cultural underpinnings of the artists' propositions, making a compelling addition to the field of postwar Latin American art.00Exhibition: The J.
