New Images from Spain
El 21 de marzo de 1980 se inauguraba en The Solomon R. Guggenheim de Nueva York la muestra colectiva New Images from Spain. Su comisaria, Margit Rowell, había visitado durante los dos años anteriores cerca de un centenar de estudios de jóvenes artistas a lo largo de la geografía española, entre los cuales escogió a una decena para organizar una exposición dedicada a nuestra escena artística. La selección final contaba con obras de Sergi Aguilar, Carmen Calvo, Teresa Gancedo, Antoni Muntadas/Germán Serrán Pagán, Miquel Navarro, Guillermo Pérez Villalta, Jordi Teixidor, Darío Villalba, Zush y José Luis Alexanco (presentes todos ellos en la Colección Josep Suñol), algunos de los cuales habían tenido la oportunidad de exponer previamente en la galería Vandrés de Fernando Vijande, con quien Josep Suñol estableció una de las relaciones entre coleccionismo y galerismo más interesantes del momento.

Ilya Bolotowsky
Representing Ilya Bolotowsky's first solo show in a New York museum, this exhibition catalogue explores Bolotowsky's clean, formal approach, his use of colour, and the influences of Piet Mondrian and Joan Miro on his work. This catalogue includes a detailed interview conducted by Louise Averill Svendsen and Mimi Poser, covering the artist's background and artistic philosophy, which is preceded by a short introductory essay on Bolotowsky's work written by Adelyn D. Breeskin. A biographical chronology, a comprehensive list of past exhibitions, and a selected bibliography expound on these texts. A plate section displaying the nearly one-hundred works included in the exhibition, in black and white and color, is also included.
