Alejandro Piñeiro Bello (b. 1990, Havana, Cuba) paints the sociocultural mystic splendor of the Caribbean’s culture with a focus on the Caribbean diaspora, Cuba, and the surrounding island nations’ identities, and histories. Using traditional materials, such as oil on raw linen or burlap, he establishes a strong palette that becomes essential in his works—striking color accents bathe between the layers in each painting, making certain areas brighten against a backdrop of deep beige. The images form endless landscapes and folkloric gestures. Physical forms and ideals appear on a timeless plane drawn from the artist’s memories and dreams. Piñeiro Bello participated in major public projects during the Havana Biennials in 2012, 2015, and 2019. His works have also been shown in exhibitions presented by Pace Gallery Seoul; KDR305 in Miami;
Pace Gallery in Palm Beach; NSU Art Museum, Fort Lauderdale and the National Museum of Fine Arts in Havana.
