\u2018The history of art has a mania for revelations. Chance encounters between the scene\u2019s
actors become surprising, unexpected events. Individual influences alter processes and
create exceptional situations of broad collective projections; the field and its coincidences
is ordered by caudilloesque models.
It is claimed, for example, that the start of the relationship of the ruralist, collector, painter
and theorist Ignacio Pirovano with the artist, designer and theorist Tom\u00e1s Maldonado was
the source point or driver that prompted Pirovano to collect non-figurative art in the 1950s,
today a cornerstone of the Museo de Arte Moderno de Buenos Aires. The influences
\u2013 especially the early ones \u2013 on the assembly of Pirovano\u2019s collection were marked by
Maldonado, who had as early as 1948 travelled to Europe and seen for himself the latest
output related to concrete art and constructivism, as well as that connected with the
early-twentieth-century avant-gardes and innovations in abstraction.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
