CUBAN CANVAS

CUBAN CANVAS

14 min

NYC PREMIERE In Havana, a leading artist of the new generation, Roger Toledo Bueno mines the past through the masters who started their careers before him — Manuel Mendive, Rocio Garcia and Roberto Diago. With his contemporary Ariamna Contino, he looks to the future. This intriguing inter-generational story captures intense color and textured patterns, ingenious materials and bold vision. It opens a rare window on rich experimentation with form and content as it connects the lines between art and life in Cuba today.
