No fue una sorpresa, y de hecho no debería sorprender a nadie, que este viernes, pintor, ilustrador, y la grabadora Zaida del Río fue homenajeada con el Premio Nacional de Artes Plásticas. Esta decisión ha sido recibida con aplausos de legiones de admiradores de su inmensamente rica obra., marcada por una fuerte vocación lírica. Su arte es cautivador por su complejidad barroca y amplitud temática., destacándose claramente en el gran panorama del arte cubano.
Zaida se encuentra entre los artistas cubanos más prolíficos y populares. Her influence extends beyond the realm of painting, although it is in this domain that she has crystallized her poetic vision. Her work, populated with enchanting creatures and mesmerizing natural motifs, transcends mere style to become a deeply personal vision of her surroundings. It reflects her rural origins while generously opening up to other geographies, spiritual currents, and recreations of human circumstances. Sobre todo, her work is a celebration of beauty and love.
Zaida del Río has always championed beauty.
The National Prize, which she will receive next week, acknowledges her mastery and commitment to the culture of her country, a culture she has enriched in dialogue with the universal heritage.
Women, birds, flores, waters of rivers and seas, dream architectures, and botanical labyrinths… elements of a vibrant, dream-like universe that have positioned Zaida del Río, painter and poet, among the greats of Cuban art. The award has reaffirmed this acknowledgment.
