Journal Title: UcoArte. Revista de Teoría e Historia del Arte - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
In this article we are looking to establish a bond between writing, calligraphy and work of art of colombian artist Emma Reyes (Bogotá, 1919 – Burdeos, 2003), based on a study of primary and secondary sources (handwritten letters, interviews testimonies and textual references within art and journalism publications) and their correlation with the graphology method for reading and her calligraphic characterization to reveal autobiographical and biographical aspects related to her work.
