Landscape I

Carlos Rodriguez Cardenas

Bio

Carlos Rodríguez Cárdenas, born in 1962 in Santi Spiritus, Villa Clara, is one of the important Cuban artists who came to contemporary art spotlight in the mid-1980’s. Since that time, his exile in Mexico in the early 1990s and settling in New York, his work has been known for its exquisite and ironic artistry, inviting the viewer to question reality and see beyond the world of the official word imposed by the system.

Statement

In his native Cuba during the 1980s, Carlos Rodríguez Cárdenas developed an inFluential style of painting that deployed irony, sly humor, and a shrewd parody of High-Modernist sophistication to mock the conceits of ofFicial state-sponsored imagery and utopian sloganeering.
