What is Afro Cuban Art


I recently viewed a clip on Cuban Art on one of my favorite sites, ArtBabble.org. This site is a great source of art videos. I have been curious about Cuban Art and wanted to learn more.

A video presented an artist who discussed his perspective and inspiration for this work. I learned that Cuban art is a diverse blend of African, European and North American design that represents this diverse part of the world.

Many Cuban artists early on were influenced by European modernism. The movements later adopted by the Cuban artists were characterized by a mix of several artistic genres.

You can find art history books, art exhibition catalogs and magazine back issues at Nella’s Books and Collectibles.
