Description from the seller

Book 1

• Title: Luis Caballero
• Author: Luis Caballero Holguín (with texts by Beatriz González, Darío Jaramillo, Donald Goodall)
• Publisher: El Sello Editorial (Santafé de Bogotá)
• Year of publication: 1995
• Number of pages: about 243 pages (large-format monographic volume)
• Short description: This is the most important and luxurious retrospective monograph published on the artist, printed in a large hardcover format with a dust jacket in the very year of his death. The book gathers critical essays by important intellectuals and examines the entire evolution of his painting focused on the male nude, eroticism, and formal torment

Book 2

• Title: Luis Caballero: Obra sobre papel
• Author: Luis Caballero Holguín (texts curated by Camilo Calderón)
• Publisher: Banco de la República / Biblioteca Luis Ángel Arango
• Year of publication: 1995
• Number of pages: 110 pages
• Short description: Official catalog in softcover of the famous exhibition of the same name held in Bogotá between June and August 1995, opened just a few days before the artist's premature death. The volume is entirely focused on Caballero's extraordinary graphic mastery, presenting his iconic anatomical drawings in pencil, charcoal, and chalk made on paper

Book 3

• Author: Luis Caballero Holguín (texts by Beatriz González, Marta Traba, José Hernández, Edward Lucie-Smith)
• Publisher: Museo Nacional de Colombia (Bogotá)
• Year of publication: 1997 (an exhibition held around 1996–1997)
• Number of pages: 111 pages
• Short description: Valuable catalog of a commemorative exhibition focused on the crucial early career years of the artist (1966-1968). It explores the period in which Caballero won the National Salon of Artists and consolidated his figurative language, still partly influenced by Pop influences and by the early strong expressive accents related to corporeality
