According to the Cuban Fund for Cultural Assets, those pieces are part of the Aforo exhibition, which will open to the public at the Collage Habana gallery in this capital on September 29.
The exhibition consists of some 20 works produced since 2019, which evoke life, as a staging, while the masks seem to emerge from the canvas to take on their own life, according to the press release issued by the institution.
The text also points out the coherence of the pieces with the aesthetics of López Oliva’s work throughout his career, as they are a graphic testimony of the complicity between painting and theater.
