Yusber Quian – EIGENGRAU

October 4, 2024
Online exclusive

Quián's work takes creative liberties in its exploration of the color grey, a concept that underpins the Eigengrau project. The term "Eigen" translates to "proper," while "grau" means grey. It refers to the dark shade perceived by most people when they close their eyes. In Yusber's own words, it is the first color we see at the beginning of life, and it will also be the last. This is the true hue of darkness, accompanied by fleeting flashes—a hallucination of the human mind, particularly in its desire to imagine in the face…Read more …

Frank David Valdés – Poems on paper

September 27, 2024
Online exclusive

The work of Frank David Valdés (Matanzas, 1988) stands as a visual narrative of the human and, why not, of its own creator. The anecdotal character prevails in them, perhaps already as a constant. This, together with a wide and lively color palette, make up his particular poetics.

Dayron Gallardo – Far Horizons

September 6, 2024
Online exclusive

The proposal of Cuban artist Dayron Gallardo (Havana, 1986) seems to inhabit dreamlike worlds. His paintings are permeated by a mystical breath. However, the artist does not throw himself into the confines of imagination in his ideo-aesthetic approaches; from them he seeks, in a sort of metaphysical exercise, the essences of our sensitive universe. With “Far Horizons” he delves into the substances of nature, in those horizons parallel to our life that pass in silent existence. Hence, the organic acquires in the works that make up this series an almost…Read more …

Since the mid-20th century, various scientific fields such as biology, genetics, and anthropology have confirmed that “human races” do not exist. Yet, the word race is…Read more …
