Description: The catalogue comprises more than 140 emblematic pieces, some of them never seen in public before, by artist Leopoldo Flores, who reflected in his works, in an unparalleled way, the concerns of his time. The catalogue includes color reproduction of the paintings of "Adam" or the Xinantécatl volcano, the sketches of some of his works such as the Cosmovitral and drawings he made on paper napkins with ink. The book "gives at the same time that value of reflection, teaching and construction reflected in its monumental series where the red crows inhabit, the transportable murals that give a glimpse of the craziness of man or the hecatomb of humanity. The large format paintings showing a human Christ or the sketches where winged men cross the universe to become a sun man. The Universidad Autonoma del Estado de Mexico is pleased to participate in this book sharing the collection that, in life, former teacher Leopoldo Flores, doctor honoris causa of the university, deposit in our institution with the commitment to keep his legacy alive and disseminate his artistic work."
