The Afro-Chinese Cuban artist Wifredo Lam (Cuba, b. 1902, Cuba; Paris, d.1982) is the most celebrated artist of the Caribbean region. Associated with Pablo Picasso during the time of Cubism and Andre Breton in the time of surrealism, Lam contributed a non-European Afro-Cuban voice to the evolution of Western art. His visual language is a synthesis of Cubism, Surrealism, “primitivism”, Negritude, Afro-Cuban history and ethnicity and the religious practice of Santería. Lam was born of a polyglot heritage; his mother was African, indigenous Cuban and Spanish and his father was a Cantonese Chinese businessman. This cross-hybridization is the basis of Lam’s artistic style, more celebrated today than during his lifetime. Domestic continental shipping is $27.
