This title presents a magnificently illustrated overview of the work of Delson Uchoa, whose colourful and often monumental works capture the vibrancy of his native Brazil. Brazilian artist Delson Uchoa is one of the most original painters to emerge from the contemporary art scene. His enormous works - some more than 10 metres wide and often the result of constant and meticulous re-working - capture the blinding light and vivid colours of his Brazilian homeland. Uchoa also employs a variety of innovative and unusual techniques to create his monumental works - for example, his painting Xadres de Chao was the result of a three year process that included covering the interior of his home with resin, painting it, and peeling it off to create a workable material. Filled with glorious full-colour photography, this volume presents an intelligent exploration of Uchoa's work, a critical essay, and an in-depth interview with the artist himself.
