Tomas Sanchez
This is the first comprehensive publication devoted to Tomás Sánchez, one of the most important and celebrated living Cuban artists. Sánchez is a commanding realist, although his landscapes are imagined or dreamed. His work is meticulous in its breath-taking detail, but the objective of the artist is not so much the recreation of reality as it is the display of a magical realism. In this respect, Sánchez is closer perhaps to Gabriel García Márquez than to the North American model of hyperrealism. This volume follows the development of Sánchez's work chronologically from his early expressionist paintings to his most recent landscapes.

Tomas Sanchez is an amazing fine arts artist who paints lush scenery with ease. I became a fan
when I saw samples of his work on another site. Serene, and beautiful imagery and I swear
I could almost see the grass move in his paintings...wow. Excellent book, one of my
treasures in my collection.
