The two-person exhibition "Vértigo," by the plastic artists José Manuel Mayo and Liusan Cabrera Almaguer, is exhibited in the virtual gallery Belkis Ayón, of the Experimental Center of Visual Arts, based in El Vedado, Havana, Cuba.

Las Tunas, Cuba.- The exhibition, which saw the light in person in 2019, in the gallery of the Provincial Committee of the Union of Writers and Artists of Cuba (UNEAC) of Las Tunas, is an approach to abstraction from an amalgam of lines and shapes, which embrace pointillism, abstract geometry, figuration, optical art, and other edges.

Points that allude to infinity, a replay of colors and geometric figures, contrasts, traps for perception, and more decorations make up the exhibition, which invites us to decode meanings, messages, universes.

Both, Liusan and Mayo, studied at the former Professional Academy of Plastic Arts of Las Tunas, and show a special interest in abstractionism (besides other forays into the world of brushes) and are even part of La Cruzada (that reveres that pictorial trend here), and they are regular participants in the Abstract Art Workshop, which has been held in this land for five editions.

Mayo, a member of UNEAC, with more than 20 years of artistic life and more than 80 exhibitions of various kinds, was trapped by the abstract until he became one of its most consecrated cultivators.

Liusan, although he likes to reflect the human and insect anatomies in his paintings, is also a student of this pictorial movement. In fact, he is currently preparing a personal exhibition in which expresses his concern for studying in-depth abstract geometry, suprematism, and optical art, taken to two-dimensional and three-dimensional planes.

Vértigo is the result of the work of two artists dedicated to improving and constant experimentation, the result of years of work that give us a work in which impeccable lines, effects, and designs are glimpsed, which would surely be made proud the National Prize for Plastic Arts, Pedro de Oraá, who sadly passed away in 2020.
