Concrete Cuba: Cuban Geometric Abstraction From The 1950S

Exhibition at the David Zwirner Gallery, New York, 7 January - 20 February 2016

Radical political shifts that raged throughout Cuba in the 1950s coincided with the development of Cuban geometric abstraction and, notably, the formation of Los Diez Pintores.
This volume is the catalogue of one of the first major presentations outside of Cuba to focus exclusively on the origins of concretism in the country, It includes important works from the late 1940s through the early 1960s by the twelve artists who were at different times associated with the short-lived group: Pedro Álvarez, Wifredo Arcay, Mario Carreño, Salvador Corratgé, Sandú Darié, Luis Martínez Pedro, Alberto Menocal, José M. Mijares, Pedro de Oraá, José Ángel Rosabal, Loló Soldevilla, and Rafael Soriano.
