Cuban posters were made using the handmade silkscreen process. Aesthetically, the paint, applied in thick layers gave these posters a unique texture that is closer to a painting than to posters.
Artistically they are among the best designed in the world and many prizes were awarded to their creators. For more information about the history of Cuban posters and his artists, visit my page at.
/This is a portfolio of 10 prints that a group of fine designers created. For the exhibition at Pabellon Cuba in Havana. Each poster is signed by the artist who created it and numbered 10 of 40 portfolios created. Each poster comes from a different artist who's name is silkscreened in the poster, the artist also signed with pencil and numbered each poster. These modern posters are made by the new generation of young artists that were trained by the old school of Cuban design from decades before. In my opinion they are revitalizing the design industry and they are doing a great job. I found that the production of these posters is very short. In most cases, less than 50 copies is the standard, making them very desirable for collectors.Original Cuban posters are becoming highly collectable and because of their scarcity many are being reproduced. We only sell original posters. I WILL SEND YOU A CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY WITH EACH POSTER. This original poster belongs to a collection that was started by my husband's grandmother in 1973 and it was brought by us to the Unites States from 1998 to 2012 in small batches, due to Cuban and U. S government restrictions on importing or exporting art from the island.
Each batch was processed by the Cuban government entity Registro Nacional de Bienes Culturales de la República de Cuba that dates from 1998 to 2012 under my name and my husband's name as permits to take the posters to the United States. I have links in my webpage with pictures of many of the receipts as proof of provenance. During more than 20 years I befriended many of the artists and collectors, read every book and article I could have my hands on and acquired the knowledge to stand by the authenticity of my collection.
I will send you a Certificate of Authenticity issued by my art gallery Art of Cuba and signed by me. Title of the poster, Year printed and the artist's name with the image of the actual poster.
