Donald Rubin, founder with his wife Shelley of New York’s Rubin Museum of Art, which focuses on the art of the Himalayas and which he has stocked with 3,800 works, has been amassing since 2009 what may be the world’s biggest private collection of contemporary Cuban art. According to his curator Rachel Perera Weingeist, at the last count there were 543 works by some 60 Cuban-born artists.
There are few sculptural works in the collection, because Rubin prefers two-dimensional pieces that can be readily hung in rooms, but Clara Morera is another favourite (he owns 13 works)whose mixed-media-on-wood assemblages feature in the current show. Found-art imagery of the US dollar combined with Cuban pesos and Cuban Convertible Pesos jokily sugest that the two economies may in fact be one.

In the early 1970s, Mario Algaze’s career got off to a quick start when he landed a job as a Miami-based freelance photographer for Zoo World, a music magazine and competitor to Rolling Stone. For the then-20-something, Cuba-born photographer, the gig meant a chance to immerse himself in America’s revolution of sex, drugs, civil rights and artistic expression.

Aluna Art Foundation will present “Sketches”, a unique book conceived to understand the artistic process of Jorge Camacho, the unforgettable Cuban Surrealist painter who reunites the mythical bequest of Ancient America with the modern legacy of the Avant-Garde, in an oeuvre that expands the magic space of the Surrealistic creation. This Object-Book edition was coordinated by Carmen Elias with texts by the legendary Surrealist poets André Breton and Joyce Mansour, the artist and critic Mario Carreño, and also with texts by writer Carmen Elias, the art critic Carlos M. Luis, the artist and independent curator Surpik Angelini, and his wife Torgia, for whom Camacho creates paintings such as Le Désert.
Carlos M. Luis, Angelini and Torgia, will be presenting this amazing book with 170 reproductions of pencil sketches and 80 color reproductions, printed in 150-gram stucco matte paper with a hardcover in a total edition of 500 volumes.

Juan Ruiz Galeria 301 NW 28th Street
A solo show that takes the continuity of “hypertextual” mediums and plays in the work by Ruben Torres Llorca to new frontiers.
This time of disenchantment is approached through the clever simulation of an aesthetics frozen at the highest point of the promises of modernism only as a ruse. The viewer’s gaze is introduced to a conceptual art that reflects the condition of a fissured world in which there is no refuge under any system.
Opening Reception November 29th – 6:00 – 9:00 PM
