    About the Book

    Edit

    El Museum de las Americas is pleased to present the retrospective exhibition "Pies Secos Pies Mojados" by the Cuban artist Humberto Castro. This exhibition is the first retrospective of Humberto Castro in Puerto Rico, which brings together important works made between 1995 and 2009 whose common discourse is The exodus. Themes such as violence, mythology, habitat and everyday life have been constant in his canvases, The migration is one of the most recurring themes by the artist. Humberto Castro witnesses the same of the family separation and the uprooting caused by the exile. He also delights us with the intensity and color of his work. This exhibition proposes new reflections about the various causes that motivate the displacement of man around the world. Escape, voyage, desire .... Extract from the text of María A. López Vilella director of the Museum of the Americas Puerto Rico Museo de las Américas (Cuartel de Ballaja, Viejo San Juan, Puerto Rico

    Humberto Castro

    Humberto Castro was born in Havana, Cuba, on July 9, 1957. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts San Alejandro and Instituto Superior de Arte (ISA) in Havana, Cuba. He works in painting, drawing, printmaking, ceramics and installations. He is one of the most active members of the group widely recognized as the “Generation of the 80s” in Cuba, which generated changes in the aesthetic and conceptual art scene of the island. In 1983 he founded the team Hexagon in which, alongside other artists, he mounted installations aimed at provoking public participation in the work. Between 1980 and 1984 he produces an extensive body of graphics, particularly innovating in the intaglio technique. He has designed sets for theater and film in Cuba. In 1989 he emigrated to Paris, France, where he lived for ten years and became active in the Parisian intellectual scene, holding exhibitions and giving conferences across Europe. In 1999 he moved to the United States, where he lives and works.
