- Summary
- The book documents 15 years of artwork of Javier Peláez (Mexico City 1976), an artist focused mainly on hyperrealistic painting and drawing. His work explores the limits of reality and its representation. "Pelaez hones his art as a copyist by cultivating difficulty. He puts his talent to the test of the translucent, the reflection, the fold, the play on shadow that glass, water, mirrors, and other reflective materials -cellophane, aluminum foil, etc.- lends themselves to, exposing them to multiple deformations and painting them according to the whims of the light." --Page 8.
