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

These 24 works of comic art feed on the prolific Cuban graphic universe of several centuries that Ivonne plunders, in the best sense, with the freedom of an indecency that allows her to mix it promiscuously, if needed,with European erotic illustrations.

From Cubaencuentro.com
A finales de la década del 40 y principios de los 50, apareció con gran fuerza la buena escultura moderna en la Isla de Cuba: Eugenio Rodríguez, López Dirube, Rolando Gutiérrez, Rodulfo Tardo, Núñez Booth, Roberto Estopiñán, Agustín Cárdenas y Tomas Oliva fueron sus creadores. Casi todos habían estudiado con Juan José Sicre en la academia de San Alejandro. Solo uno de estos escultores está vivo y sigue trabajando hoy en día con 91 años: Roberto Estopiñán. Él se queja de que su memoria le está fallando, que necesita de aparatos para oír, y que ya no puede recitar versos enteros de “La joven parca” de Valéry. Lo que no menciona es que todos los días hace un dibujo que comienza temprano y termina de noche, y que sigue tallando y modelando esculturas en escalas modestas.

I do photography to find out who I am. To open my eyes every morning in a city other than Havana is a revelation that occurs to me again and again. I start each day aware that I live between different worlds, because my new city is so different from the Havana I love so much.

Waltman Ortega Fine Art is pleased to present “Passengers” a recent series of paintings by the celebrated Cuban-american artist. Featuring paintings ranging in size from intimate to monumental, these works provide a hypnotic meditation on the human condition and the passage of time.
“Airports, train stations, bus stops, parking lots … all are a source of fascination and anxiety for me,” notes Rodriguez. “With their constant, yet anonymous flow of traffic, these places embody some of the most impermanent and poignant paradoxes in life. I have composed each picture as both an interior and exterior landscape, in which space becomes a metaphor for loneliness.”

Opening April 7, 12-6 pm
Lately we have seen a revitalized interest in the work of a group of Cuban artists that were very active in the fifties and early sixties. These artists introduced to Cuba’s predominantly figurative art of the period the then novel abstract tendencies that were coming first from Europe and later from the United States.

Cremata Gallery proudly presents ” DEMI: Drawings”. This exhibition will present 35 works on paper and five sculptures by the well-known artist DEMI. This is one of the few times that the artist will exhibit her works on paper, which is a part of her work that has not been shown as often as her well known paintings.
DEMI’s works on paper exemplifies the possibilities of the medium on her own terms. With color pencils, various pens, watercolor, acrylic and ink, DEMI’s lines move across the paper from the subtle and delicate to the harsh and strong. These works are composed in an open and flexible manner, in them drawing becomes an adventure without dogmas whose lyricism and freedom reminds us of the best of Paul Klee.
