Homage to the Creative Spirit: The Paintings of Jenness Cortez (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780975375242)

For centuries artists have been challenging their intellects and skills by paying homage to the painters who preceded them. Jenness Cortez has emerged as the twenty-first century's most notable exponent of this facet of art history. In her series of Homage paintings, Cortez plays author, architect, visual journalist, art historian, curator and pundit to help open our eyes to what we have overlooked.

Each painting presents a specific theme, mixing straightforward cues and obscure allusions, complemented by references to other artists lives and times.
