Second part of book deals with artifacts as American art and addresses reception of ancient tectonics in the 20th century. Emphasizes intense relationship that some members of the New York School (particularly Barnett Newman and Adolph Gottlieb) had during 1940s with the aboriginal arts of the North American part of the hemisphere and thus the affinities between their work and the work of the older Torres García in Montevideo, at the other end of the continent"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.$uhttp://www.loc.gov/hlas/
