Cuban Ingenuity
When Gabriela Azcuy met husband-to-be Jorge Lavoy in Havana in 2013, it was not the charming, attractive fellow she initially fell in love with – it was his car.
Azcuy was a graduate in Art History from the Faculty of Arts and Letters of the University of Havana – and Lavoy’s car was a work of art that commanded her attention.
Intimate States
Cuban American artist Eduardo Sarmiento makes art about life. His paintings, drawings, graphic design work, and illustrations are led, in short, by exploration – “creating beauty and visual experiences, telling the truth, sparking conversations, and exploring life,” as he puts it.
The Renaissance of Inventiveness
The inventive mindset is celebrated, encouraged and inspired at the new STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics)-learning museum, the Cade Museum for Creativity & Invention.
Carlos Rolón: Lost in Paradise
In Lost in Paradise, the newest exhibition in the J. Wayne and Delores Barr Weaver Sculpture Garden & Plaza at the Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens, artist Carlos Rolón draws inspiration from the architecture and natural landscapes shared by Florida and Puerto Rico, and brings attention to both nature’s unbridled ability to change its own landscape and humankind’s ability to rebuild.
