This book groups an anthological selection of texts on geometric abstraction, published in Arte en Colombia/ArtNexus magazine. Abstraction has been present in the magazine since its inception during the 1970´s. The 1950´s represented a key moment for the Constructivist and Concrete Movements in Latin America, which were a starting point for generating an important production that influenced other related fields such as contemporary architecture and design.
From chapter 4 the book focuses of contemporary abstract artists such as: Vicente Antonorsi, Emilia Azcárate, Elías Crespín, Sigfredo Chacón, Marta Chilindrón, Marcolina Dipierro, Danilo Dueñas, Magdalena Fernández, Ricardo Rendón and Pablo Siquier.
