FARFALLINE DELLA NOTTE
BURSTING SOUL
MAGDALENA’S NIECE
THE ART COLLECTOR
NUDE WITH GLASSES AND GOATEE
DREAMING POSE
I am not Art savvy. My “expertise” is limited to a freshman Intro to Art class, an unhealthy obsession with the Met when I lived in New York and my own dabblings in photography. All I know is that I like what I like and I like love Cesar Santos’ work.
I was scrolling through Tumblr and came across his work on Cave to Canvas, where he was being featured as the artist of the day.
What struck me most about these paintings is how much they looked like photo-collages (my obsession for the last few months as you know)!! I was sold.
The Cuban American’s work is described as the marriage of classical and modern elements – syncretism. I think this makes his beautiful work just that more interesting.
