CUNDO BERMÚDEZ (1914-2008) Untitled signed and dated 'Cundo Bermudez 53' (upper right) oil on canvas 40 3/16 x 27 1/4 in (102.1 x 69.2 cm) Painted in 1953 Footnotes: This work is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the Conrado Basulto and dated March 17, 2015. Provenance Private collection, Miami. Acquired from the above by the present owner. Untitled (1953) represents one of the most refined formulations of Cundo Bermúdez's modern visual language, in which the female figure is constructed through a geometric synthesis of chromatic planes and rhythmic repetition. The stylized body is integrated into an abstract field of patterned forms, creating a carefully balanced tension between structure and movement. The presence of a musical instrument introduces a symbolic dimension associated with culture, music, and Caribbean identity-recurring motifs in Bermúdez's work. Fragmented planes and a warm, harmonized palette reinforce a modern reading of the body conceived less as literal representation than as visual sign. The work exemplifies Bermúdez's ability to merge figuration and abstraction with compositional elegance, marking his decisive contribution to the renewal of Cuban art in the mid-twentieth century.
