"Los cuatro hitos" by Carlos Mérida is a vibrant mixed media work on masonite that reflects the Guatemalan-born artist's signature fusion of pre-Columbian indigenous imagery with European modernist abstraction. Bold geometric forms and rhythmic patterns animate the composition, evoking ancient mythological symbolism translated through a contemporary visual language. The work exemplifies Mérida's lifelong commitment to celebrating Latin American cultural heritage through a distinctive aesthetic that bridges tradition and modernity.
