Provenance Private collection, Miami. Acquired from the above by the present owner. La semana breve (1977) belongs to a mature phase of Servando Cabrera Moreno's career, in which the human body becomes a vehicle for introspection and restrained emotional sensitivity. The composition is structured around fragmented limbs and expressive hands, rendered through delicate tonal washes and a limited chromatic range that softens contours and privileges gesture over form. Favoring suggestion rather than description, the work creates an intimate and contemplative atmosphere in which time appears suspended. This quiet, poetic treatment of the body-free of rhetoric or overt symbolism-reveals the emotional depth and formal subtlety that characterize the artist's later production. Regarded as one of the central figures of modern Cuban art, Cabrera Moreno is celebrated for his mastery of drawing, his lyrical pictorial language, and his sustained exploration of the human body as a site of vulnerability and inner experience.
