ISBN: 8448234235. "Fonseca’s work has evolved from his early portraits, still-lifes and landscapes to his present abstract work. During the last ten years he has pursued the idea of reducing the elements of painting to a basis of plastic values with which to start to construct new languages. Despite its apparent abstraction, Fonseca’s painting has connections with reality. In his work we find the influence of the city of New York and its variegated streets, but also the landscapes of Tuscany, a region that he still often visits. The exhibition organised by the IVAM offers a survey of Fonseca’s work of the last twenty years, and this will be the first time that his work has been shown in a Spanish museum.
