Charles Logasa - Europe & Travels

Europe & Travels

In 1920 growing recognition enabled Logasa to devote himself full time to his painting. He traveled in Europe during the 1920s, returning to establish a residence in New York City in 1928. When Joaquín Torres García returned to Europe from New York City in 1924 and gave up his art, Logasa was able to convince him to start working again.

A foreword he composed after a Mexican stay in Old Monterrey in 1936 reveals a wry humor not often seen in his painting.

Famous quotes containing the words europe and/or travels:

    All the terrors of the French Republic, which held Austria in awe, were unable to command her diplomacy. But Napoleon sent to Vienna M. de Narbonne, one of the old noblesse, with the morals, manners, and name of that interest, saying, that it was indispensable to send to the old aristocracy of Europe men of the same connection, which, in fact, constitutes a sort of free- masonry. M. de Narbonne, in less than a fortnight, penetrated all the secrets of the imperial cabinet.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Evil counsel travels fast.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
