Francisco Toledo exhibits a series of about 40 self-portraits. He is regarded as one of the finest living artists in Mexico, and enjoys an international reputation within the art world, if not so much beyond it.
These volumes compile six decades of work by Francisco Toledo, along with expert reflections on the value and significance of his artistic work. The result is four volumes that include almost the entire trajectory of master Francisco Toledo.
In his homeland, Toledo went by the nickname of ‘El Maestro’ (The Master). He died in September 2019, aged 79, prompting Mexico’s president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, to declare that ‘art is in mourning’. Toledo had worked in an array of media, from pottery to weaving. However, it’s painting for which he is best known.
