Award-winning art writer Julie Belcove offers a thoughtful exploration of his life’s work, which has been exhibited worldwide—from Paris to New York City to his homeland, the Dominican Republic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIván Tovar was an artist of rare breadth and depth: a painter, sculptor, illustrator, poet, polymath, and polyglot. Today, he stands as the most sought-after Dominican artist on the international art market. Tovar’s art is distinctive and unforgettable, often featuring deep, nearly black backgrounds that reveal emblematic forms and creations—spheres, ovoids, and beasts. His geometric and organic motifs intertwine like actors on a stage, imbued with poetic ambiguity. Tovar’s revolutionary creations continue to inspire, standing as a lasting testament to his unique imagination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book, which brings together all of the artist’s masterpieces, is an open invitation to the world of dreams, and illustrates, in countless ways, the famous declaration by André Breton, the father of Surrealism: “I believe in the future resolution of these two states, dream and reality, which are seemingly so contradictory, into a kind of absolute reality, a surreality, if one may so speak.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis project was made possible through collaboration with the Santo Domingo-based Fundación Iván Tovar (Iván Tovar Foundation).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-heading__title h5\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eThe carefully selected books that we present in our Premium Store are thanks to the precious collaboration between the\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003eGrande Libreria Internazionale Hoepli\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eand Danilo Cascella\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-heading__title h5\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar6.jpg?v=1761041223\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar7.jpg?v=1761041223\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar8.jpg?v=1761041224\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar9.jpg?v=1761041223\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar10.jpg?v=1761041224\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar11.jpg?v=1761041223\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar12.jpg?v=1761041223\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar13.jpg?v=1761041224\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar14.jpg?v=1761041223\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/4455\/7253\/files\/Ivan_Tovar15.jpg?v=1761041223\u0026amp;width=700\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-heading__title h5\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assouline","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48993052623102,"sku":"eez1789751589328","price":159.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/0116\/0702\/files\/ivan-tovar_1.jpg?v=1789751595","url":"https:\/\/canvasrusticfit.shop\/products\/ivan-tovar","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
