OUT OF MY HEAD THE IMAGINARY CREATURES OF JOSEP BAQUE HARDCOVER
Writer: Brian Chidester
Artist: Josep Baque
Cover Artist: Josep Baque
In this first-ever critical biography of Baqué, art historian, author, and curator Brian Chidester reflects the artist and his creation through the prism of 20th century art, the Franco dictatorship in Spain (1939–75), and the few correlative records in Baqué’s personal archive. Yet the book doubles as a manual of sorts on the creative process, and most fascinatingly, speaks to the deeper role the imagination plays in overcoming oppression through wonder.
