Agustín Bejarano

Culto (Jungla III), 2014

Mixed media on canvas, 50 x 50 cm.


  • Estos paisajes de Bejarano son el sitio de comunión de gente que busca despertar, abandonar toda duda sobre sí, resistir las más álgidas tensiones para hallar la iluminación de la conciencia propia.
  • France has Claude Monet, Spain, Joaquín Sorolla, America, Childe Hassam. The list goes on to find in Cuba an artist such Agustín Bejarano whom the scene of painting remains his to rule. Dryness fills what could have been benevolent landscapes and instead are places of vociferating sterility, a somber atmosphere in which man is only a small particle.

The landscape has always been a complementary resource in the work of Agustín Bejarano; he has reinserted it at his convenience in his work, like he did with some imageries of universal painting. There are times when his landscape seem more induced, fragmented, and others when they are more panoramic or detailed. But on both occasions one becomes aware of the display of a representative concept conditioned by the sudden existential fluctuations of the art subject.
