Zaida del Río (1954 Las Villas) is a woman artist, a tireless, fervent exponent of Cuban fine arts, and defender of femininity mostly via her poetry. She gets her inspiration in her most profound desires for an equitable world in balance with Mother Nature. Dancing figures, in which femininity is a principle element, navigate through dissimilar worlds and universes. The skill and grace of her brush take over her shapes of religiousness and hedonism that become melded into one. Zaida is a Cuban painter who has gained a deserved spotlight among recognized Cuban contemporary artists. Curriculum summary Zaida del Río Born June 3, 1954 in Guadalupe, Las Villas. She studied en the National School of Art and the Superior Institute of Art in Havana, and the School of Fine Arts in Paris. Drawer, engraver, painter, muralist, poet and ceramic and textile decorator, she has numerous expositions and prizes under her belt, the most notable being the itinerant showing of Contemporary Cuban Art, Sweden-Norway-Denmark (1976); Cuban Art, in the Sing Gallery, New York (1982); ARCO 96, Spain. Among the prizes she has won is that for drawing, National Salon of Fine Arts, UNEAC, Cuba (1979), and first prize for painting, Cairo, Egypt Biennale (1993). In 1987 she attended a course on Cuban culture at the San Carlos and San Ambrosia Seminary in Havana, where the religious bent of her work began, resulting in publishing of drawings in the classic book Herencia, a continuation of Refranes about ‘Santeros.’ After a year of study in France in the noteworthy Hayter Workshop, and travelling through Italy, Spain, England, Germany, and Holland, Zaida del Río returned to her interest producing art. |
