  Taller Torres Garcia (sometimes abbreviated TTG) was an organization founded by Joaquín Torres-García in Montevideo, Uruguay in 1943. He intended it to serve as a form of art education that would support young artists. The group organized exhibitions and published its own magazine. Its members included many prominent artists, such as Torres-García’s sons Augusto Torres and Horacio Torres, Julio Alpuy, José Gurvich, and Gonzalo Fonseca. The group built on the ideas of Torres-Garcia and were influential in advancing modern art in Uruguay. The group later dissolved in 1963.
