According to the artist Agustín Calviño Insua (Gólgota) the exhibition, being held in the Cuban Union of Writers and Artists (UNEAC) in Sancti Spiritus, is part of a bigger project which features artists of different generations, who made miniature works exclusively for this occasion.
The exhibition has more than 20 pieces, including landscapes and pictures of Jose Marti (Cuba’s National Hero), painted by Gólgota and other young artists like Daymara Orasma.
"The curiosity of this work—said Dayana Orasma, author of one of the pictures of Jose Marti— is that my piece is made using a collage of small pieces of paper", a technique she commonly uses in her abstract pieces which allows her to play with colours.
One of the subsequent purposes of the artists involved in the project Por única vez. El arte contemporáneo en miniature, (Only Once. Contemporary Art in Miniature) is to join artists from other provinces to later mount an exhibition in Havana City with new works.
The "Jose Marti, the Ecology and the Arts" Third Salon of Miniature Art will last in Sacti Spiritus until January 23 with the participation of almost fifty artists from Havana City, Cienfuegos, Villa Clara, Ciego de Avila, Camagüey, Las Tunas and Sancti Spiritus.
