Agustin Jimenez Chacon

Agustín José Jiménez Chacón vive y desarrolla su creación en la ciudad de Santiago de Cuba, República de Cuba. Nació en 1983, en la misma ciudad.
El padre de Agustín, un médico, hizo personalmente las ilustraciones para su libro de cirugía sin la ayuda de un dibujante profesional. Él tenía el don de las artes visuales que heredó de su padre. Agustín cree que sus progenitores le dieron su aptitud y pasión por el arte.

Agustín describe su viaje artístico, "Desde la infancia he encontrado un refugio en el dibujo. Tenía la necesidad de traducir mi entorno en líneas y colores. Para mí, esto era algo muy liberador y relajante. Me dediqué a convertir mis cuadernos de la escuela en pequeñas galerías llenas de personajes hasta que empecé a participar en concursos de pintura a petición del director de mi escuela. Desde ese momento, el mundo del arte vino a mí de manera empírica hasta que me dediqué a estudiar su metodología antes de tomar el examen de ingreso a la Academia de Artes Plásticas de Santiago de Cuba.

La profesora de Español Literatura de la escuela secundaria de Agustín fue la responsable de cultivar en él la visión de las artes como una profesión y como un camino a seguir de por vida, más allá de un mero pasatiempo. Ella dirigía una revista literaria de la escuela en la que él fue uno de los ilustradores.

Estudió Diseño Gráfico, Ilustración y Técnicas de Grabado en la Academia de Artes Plásticas "José Joaquín Tejada" (1998-2002), que se encuentra en Santiago de Cuba.

Agustín trabajó durante más de dos años (2003-2004) en el Centro de Artes Plásticas y Diseño de Santiago de Cuba, como miembro del Equipo de Montaje de la Galería. Más tarde, se convirtió en parte del Departamento de Artes Gráficas de la Academia de Artes Plásticas "José Joaquín Tejada" como profesor de técnicas de grabado durante cuatro cursos (2005-2009).

Su trabajo ha sido expuesto en galerías de todo el país. Su arte también se ha mostrado en muchas exposiciones colectivas en Cuba así como también en diferentes países.

Agustín habla del estado actual de su creatividad, “En este momento estoy en una etapa plena de imaginación que me impulsa a tomar desafíos. He trabajado durante mucho tiempo en formatos pequeños y medianos utilizando papel industrial y manufacturado, como soportes de mis obras de arte. Siento que ahora es tiempo de dar mayores dimensiones a mis personajes. Mi objetivo inmediato es comenzar a trabajar en un formato más grande, así podré elevar mi arte a otro nivel”.

Artist's Statement
I consider myself totally away from fads or trends. When I create a piece of art, I am guided only by my truest inspiration from a total freedom of choice. Being completely self-taught, I do not believe in the academy and its dogmas, and even less in the market claims. So, I change my artistic style as if I were changing my clothes. For me, art is a passion, a fun, a great adventure.
I use dissimilar materials such as acrylic, oil, charcoal, graphite, resins, gesso, alcohol, newspapers sheets, etc. I love monochromatic tones and rough or dynamic strokes, as well as I enjoy turning the spatula in the biggest protagonist of my work.
My thematic interest revolves around human beings and their most pressing conflicts. My works are profound social portraits of a generation. Similarly, I’m interested in cultural dialogues between East and West, or between societieswhich, despite their differences, belong to the same condition: human.

Guillermo Estrada Viera, sculptor, painter and printmaker.

Born December 9,1963, Guillermo Estrada Viera is a sculptor, painter and printmaker.
Estrada began this mixed media series by collecting "libretas de abastecimiento" (ration card Booklets) from Cuban families for an entire year. He used these booklets upon which to produce his woodcut prints. After the printing process is complete, the final effect is achieved by holding each piece above lit candles, slightly burning the paper.
Estrada has seamlessly married his materials and ideas, producing a series that speaks to the hunger of the creative heart and reflects the ongoing hardships suffered by Cubans over the shortages of food and other goods. 

Gloria Lorenzo (Santa Clara, Cuba 1954)

Gloria Lorenzo

Gloria Lorenzo’s work reflects a profound versatility of mediums and depth of expression and expound on her desire to formally capture time, emotions and reality in an effort to provide form to the intangible, to that that cannot be contained.  Her sculptures have evolved from primarily enameled clay objects to larger scale pieces that incorporate wood, metal, resins and other materials.  Gloria’s use of evocative organic forms draws inspiration from her love of structure, textures and process.

Born in Cuba, Gloria graduated from the renowned San Alejandro Academy of Art in Havana.  She quickly rose to the top of Cuba’s avant-garde exhibiting in the National Museum of Fine Arts, the Center for Design and Fine Arts and the Amelia Peláez Gallery among others.

Gloria left Cuba and emigrated to the United States in 1991. That year, she was featured in two solo shows in Spain at the Mayfair Villa Franca de Penedes and Sala del Ayuntamiento of Saint Sadurni in Barcelona. In 1994, Gloria was invited to participate at the prestigious International Latin American Art Fair in Brussels and at “7 x 7: Encuentros” at the Museo Ateneo in Caracas.

From 1993 to 1996, she was represented by Meza Fine Arts Gallery in Coral Gables and her work was featured in Art Miami ’94, ’95 and ‘96. Gloria has had solo exhibitions at the Metro Dade Cultural Center in 1997 and at the Cuban Museum of Miami in 1998.

In 2000 she participated in two group shows, at Fraga Fine Arts Gallery, “Virgenes” and “Two Ways/One Concept” and a solo show in 2003.  Since 2004, Gloria has had yearly solo exhibitions at Imaginart Gallery in Miami.  Her sculptures are part of the collections at the National Museum of Contemporary Cuban Ceramics in Havana, the Cultural Foundation in Quito, Ecuador and the Lowe Art Museum in Coral Gables, FL.

Gloria currently lives and works in Miami.  In addition to working with clay and acrylics, Gloria has executed site-specific installations and large-scale murals.
