Provenance Acquired directly from the artist by the present owner. Untitled (1986) belongs to a pivotal period in Flavio Garciandía's career, defined by the intersection of abstraction, irony, and cultural critique. The work articulates a pictorial language of strong chromatic and structural presence, in which painting functions simultaneously as a visual object and as a critical reflection on the conventions of modern art. Executed during the 1980s-a decisive moment in the development of Cuban contemporary art-the piece exemplifies Garciandía's analytical engagement with painting as a medium. Through a lucid and experimental approach, he interrogates the limits of abstraction, positioning the act of painting itself as both subject and inquiry. Widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in Cuban contemporary art, Garciandía played a central role in the conceptual renewal of painting and in shaping the aesthetic debates of his generation.
