Obispo y O'Reilly, Habana Vieja.
Cuban art is a nexus of many social, political, anthropological and historical influences resulting in unique beauty, oddity, shock, and almost a metaphysical sense of the original
inhabitants, the Taino, discovered by Columbus in 1492..
In Havana the artists are commonly introspective in their works, reflecting the beauty of derelection and the consciousness of a youthful populace mixed from Spanish and African slave ancestry.
