The collection was initiated in the 1970s by Roberto Fernández Martínez. His collection features works by some of the most celebrated Cuban artists, incluido Alfredo Sosabravo, Tomás Sánchez, Mariano Rodríguez, Nelson Domínguez, Roberto Fabelo, René Portocarrero, y Armando Morales Riverón.

The diversity of styles and visual languages represented highlights both the collector’s broad interests and the richness of Cuban artistic expression during the second half of the 20th century.

More than just a gathering of artworks, this collection stands as a living testimony of the dialogue between Fernández Martínez’s own creative practice and the broader artistic universe that surrounded him. Hoy, it represents a valuable reference for understanding the dynamics of Cuban art collecting and its role in preserving cultural heritage.
