DRAWINGS BY TAMAYO By  Enrique F. Gual Mexico: Ediciones Mexicanas, 1950, 1st edition, Sherman Art Library Special Collection.

This is the first published book devoted to Rufino Tamayo's drawings.  These pages offer a look at Tamayo the artist, as an extraordinarily sensitive draftsman.  Many of these drawings are the origins of his great murals and paintings, and offer a glimpse into the artist's creative process.

Rufino Tamayo is one of the best known Latin American artists. His work may be found in major museums such as the Palacio Nacional de Bellas Artes, Mexico, the Philips Collection in Washington, the Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid as well as the Hood Museum of Art at here at Dartmouth College.
