Invoking the exoticizing fantasies of Henri Rousseau and Paul Gauguin, Guzmán's paintings deconstruct imperialist fantasies, proposing an alternative vision of symbiosis--between both nature and its inhabitants and the conscious and unconscious mind.\u003cbr\u003ePresenting 84 pieces by the artist--seven of which are new--the volume is organized in sections that explore different facets of her practice, including her relationship to modernist architecture and her creative sublimation of inner demons. \u003ci\u003eMiracle Fruits\u003c\/i\u003e also features her lesser-known studio scenes and self-portraits, as well as three new essays that probe Guzmán's fusion of art historical references, such as ancient Chinese painting, Japanese Ukiyo-e, Impressionism and Post-impressionism, Surrealism and Magical Realism, Mexican Muralism and ex-voto painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Museu de Arte de Sao Paulo Assis Chateaubrian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9786557770801\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.92h x 9.84w x 0.87d","brand":"Hulda Guzman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52403585024181,"sku":"9786557770801","price":38.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_85b2b4fc-a854-4a54-9f3e-7be191a67eaa.jpg?v=1774969824","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/hulda-guzman-miracle-fruits-9786557770801","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
