The work of Colombian sculptor Edgar Negret is lovingly portrayed in this homage to the man and six decades of his art. The incorporation of aluminum, industrial paint, and visible assembling techniques in his 1950s works in Mallorca and New York is discussed along with details of his journey across America, return to Colombia, and artistic approximation of Latin American literature. As the panorama of his life and art unfolds, the increasing incorporation of pre-Colombian mythology in his sculpture is analyzed, concluding with a portrayal of the beautiful birds, butterflies, flowers, and toys he created at the final years of his life.
