Highlights
Ernesto Estévez is one of the best known contemporary Cuban artists on the international stage. He has studied professional photography, and has sparked interest from numerous collectors and institutions around the world.
Inspired by landscapes and nature as a valid style in which to channel his emotions, sensations and perceptions of the world, he invites us at the same time to hedonistically contemplate his canvasses. With milimetric precision, his beyond realistic landscapes demonstrate both the artists's mastery and the singular creativity of their maker. The Cuban countryside and nature become the poetry needed to examine ourselves deeply, and discover the infinite and inexhaustible essences of Mother Nature.
Ernesto Estévez's work can be found in many private collections in Spain, France, the United States, and Guatemala.
