The Argentine critic Damián Bayón briefly summarizes the state of Latin American art in Europe. Many artists are there for just a short time, they come and then leave; most are men and the majority live in Paris. Most are painters, although there are also sculptors, illustrators, and graphic artists. Bayón divides them into artistic styles: abstract; figurative; lyrical; kinetic and geometric; neo-figurative; sociopolitical figuration; surrealist; and conceptual. He concludes that although most of these artists attract little attention in their voluntary exile, their art has had an impact in Latin America. The artists mentioned here are: A.
