Joaquin Torres Garcia (1874–1949) Uruguayan painter who introduced Constructivism to South America. In 1891 Torres-García moved with his family from Uruguay to Spain, where they lived in Barcelona. In 1894 he began studying academic painting at Barcelona’s Academy of Fine Arts. By 1896 he had begun to rebel against the conservative style of the academy and to explore Impressionism and Post-Impressionism in works that reflect the influence of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Garden of the Gallery of Fine Arts (c. 1897) impressionistically depicts the upper-class patrons of a museum.
