Title: An outstanding bio of an outstanding artist
Product review: My first contact with Varo's paintings was at the Sao Paulo Biennial in the late 1980's, and I felt two emotions: I was stunned by the excellence of her work, and dumbfounded at realizing she was a virtual unknown. I feel that her surrealistic vision and her painting skills are 100% on a level with Magritte and Dalí. This bio, lavishly illustrated with photos throughout her life and images of her works, is a marvel. It should be required reading in every art department, everywhere. I hope that one day soon Varo will get the recognition she deserves.
