Xul Solar was the adopted name of Oscar Agustín Alejandro Schulz Solari (born December 14,1887 - April 9, 1963), Argentine painter, sculptor, writer, and inventor of imaginary languages. Il Giornale Nuovo [1] described him as "a visionary utopian; an occultist and astrologer who yet remained catholic; an accomplished musician who was fluent in seven languages, two of which were of his own devising; and a minor character in Borges’s Tlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius".
