Mayabeque, Cuba: The exhibition My Land, Our Future of the creator Rogelio Fundora is exhibited at the Centro Iberoamericano de la Décima y el Verso Improvisado, CIDVI, converted into an Art Gallery, on the occasion of the fourteenth Havana Biennial, the largest contemporary arts event in Cuba.
The personal exhibition of the also known as El guajiro que pinta gravitates around the bucolic theme in an eternal dialogue with peasant values and the benefits of the land as a reward for human labor, thus turning to the rural symbolism that constitutes an unavoidable part of national identity.
Rogelio Fundora is a unique character who lives in the La Esperanza farm, located in the municipality of Madruga, belonging to the province of Mayabeque.
He became a self-taught painter and, since then, he can be seen indistinctly with a guataca or a brush in his hands. The small workshop is located in a little house next to his property. There you can see several oil paintings, in which you breathe soul and peasant poetry.
The exhibition My Land, Our Future will be available to the public until the closing of the Havana Biennial.
