Cuba: Rigoberto Mena | 2 Images
Born in Havana in 1961, Rigoberto Mena Santana graduated from the city’s Polytechnic Institute of Industrial Design in 1987 and studied at the San Alejandro Academy of Visual Arts. He lived and worked in Havana until his recent departure to Miami. Mena’s mostly abstract painting and mixed media techniques explore the colors, textures and sensations of his native city. With the eye of an urban designer and the hand of an abstract expressionist, Mena is able to transform urban landscapes into a fluid visual language.
Since the early 1990’s, Mena’s body of work has been featured in solo and group shows in Cuba and various parts of Europe, the United States, Canada and the Caribbean. Today his works are included in art collections worldwide.
