Zilia Sánchez Domínguez, a Cuban artist residing in Puerto Rico, has made her mark in the art world with her abstract paintings and set designs. Her unique style combines elements of sculpture and painting, resulting in three-dimensional canvases with minimalistic color schemes and erotic undertones. Her "Amazonas" series, a tribute to female warriors, is a testament to her feminist approach to art. Despite facing significant challenges, including the loss of much of her work during Hurricane Maria in 2018, Sánchez's artistry has been recognized and celebrated, culminating in a retrospective of her 70-year career at the Phillips Collection in 2019. #lasamazonas #ziliasanchez #cubanart #artecubano #artcuban #artbasel #habana #artemoderno #contenporaryart #artvibes #art #painting #sculpture #artwork #arte #artoftheday #artsy #contemporaryart #artistic #paintings #fineart #modernart #artfeature #artstudy #artdiscover #creative #contemporaryartists #artoftheweek

In celebrating LGBTQ+ History Month!
This book showcases a selection of works that illustrate the breadth and depth of queer art from around the world. Exploring identity, eroticism, relationships, hidden desires, love, and gender through drawing, painting, photography, sculpture, and film, it tells the story of queer art from 1900 to the present, revealing how artists’ experiences have been shaped by class and ethnicity, as well as how art itself has played a key role in changing attitudes and crystalizing identities. Each work is accompanied with a short text explaining its wider social and cultural context, and what 'queer' means in these differing historic and contemporary contexts. A Queer Little History of Art includes works from a variety of artists - among them Egon Schiele, Duncan Grant, Romaine Brooks, Edward Burra, Salvador Dali, Frida Kahlo, David Hockney, Diane Arbus, Francis Bacon, Bhupen Khakhar, Zanele Muholi, Allyson Mitchell, and Tomoko Kashiki - all of whom found new freedom in radical ideas and new art forms., The publication is a celebration of more than 100 years of queer art, as well as the LGBT community that has embraced it. – Summarized from Publisher’s note.

Time to kill near Dupont on a Thursday led to an evening visit to the @phillipscollection #ziliasanchez "Soy Isla" exhibit, which I had wanted to go to anyway. Almost everything that appealed to me tonight was a Trojan woman, a moon, or a Fury. In the accompanying video, Zilia said, "If I go to a class and they tell me, 'draw an apple, I leave and I go home and I eat the apple, and then I draw what I want." https://www.instagram.com/paustianbargain/p/BvkiDVXjEOF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7dnpuw3rj53u

Zilia Sánchez (CUBA)
An latin american artist whose works was discovered more recently but in the 50's she was doing what we can call a true statement with her works.
Born in Cuba, Zilia start as set designer and abstract painter of the theater radical groups before the cuban revolution in 1953.
She was in the middle of Cuba’s vanguard artists, including The Eleven, a group of young painters and sculptors who share an interest in gestural
abstraction.
"I am an island" - is how she describes herself, also exploring domestic and geopolitical control in her pieces.
The warmth of the silhouettes in her canvases remind us to think about our females bodies and how thei're approached in our society since the past till nowdays.
Is provocative but in a abstract way, with the bodies and the natural world at the same circustance in her experiments with abstraction.
Her technique consistis in stretching canvases over molded wooden armatures, abstracting the traditional support for painted figures and landscapes into epidermal surfaces and topographical shapes, tha allows her to play with the female anatomy and celestial space.
The masculine and the feminine, the personal and the universal, the outside and the inside. Is some the dinamics we can see in Sánchez's works.

Zilia Sánchez Domínguez, a Cuban artist based in Puerto Rico, is renowned for her abstract painting and set designing. Her work, characterized by canvases layered with three-dimensional protrusions and shapes, blurs the lines between sculpture and painting. These pieces, minimal in color, often carry erotic overtones. Her notable "Amazonas" series, a testament to her feminist approach to art, features female warriors and highlights the female form. The greatness of Sánchez's art lies in its unique blend of painting and sculpture, its minimalist yet impactful use of color, and its powerful representation of femininity. Despite challenges, including the destruction of much of her artwork during Hurricane Maria in 2018, Sánchez's work has gained recognition over the years. In 2019, her 70-year career was celebrated in her first museum retrospective at the Phillips Collection. Her art continues to inspire, marking her as a significant figure in contemporary art. #lasamazonas #ziliasanchez #cubanart #artecubano #artcuban #artbasel #habana #artemoderno #contenporaryart #artvibes #art #painting #sculpture #artwork #arte #artoftheday #artsy #contemporaryart #artistic #paintings #fineart #modernart #artfeature #artstudy #artdiscover #creative #contemporaryartists #artoftheweek
