Publisher's Synopsis
Ever since his arrival in Mexico in 1975, Jan Hendrix has been a key figure in the country's art scene. From that moment on, his work, inspired by the aesthetics of the traveler and the naturalist, has incorporated a thread of visual and cultural experiences that build an unexpected bridge between the Mexican and Dutch traditions of thinking about nature.This publication accompanies the first retrospective of the artist's work, exploring his visual and technical research into contemporary graphic possibilities and his vision of the importance of nature in our social memory.
