Zilia was born in Havana in 1926 (or 1928)… she is a sculptor, painter, engraver, and creator of scenic sets… she lives in Puerto Rico and achieved her development and fame in Cuba before the communist revolution… She studied at the National School of Fine Arts «San Alejandro» in Havana, and her first exhibition was in 1953. Her paintings are very sculptural as she adds three-dimensional elements to her canvases and tends to lean towards the erotic as well. When Fidel Castro took over her homeland, she moved to New York and continued her art studies at the Pratt Institute in that city… She is an authentically feminist artist. Her work was included in the exhibition Radical Women: Latin American Art, 1960-85 at the Brooklyn Museum (2018)… She is also a pioneer of feminism in art. In 2020, her works were exhibited in My Body My Rules, at the Pérez Art Museum in the city of Miami… Although her art is practically unknown in other parts of the world, her seven-decade career is now standing out and her work is reaching museums, especially the Pérez Art Museum in Miami. In 2023, her work was included in the exhibition Action, Gesture, Paint: Women Artists and Global Abstraction 1940-1970 at the Whitechapel Gallery in London.

#art, Great Artists Series: Raffaelle Monti
Este gran escultor y poeta nació en Milán en 1818… Estudió escultura en la Real Academia Imperial de Bellas Artes de Milán… Tenía gran habilidad para esculpir figuras veladas y eso lo hizo muy famoso y su obra la realizó en la Royal Academy of Arts… Finalmente se interesó por la galvanoplastia y trabajó en la empresa Elkington & Co. de Birmingham. Pero su economía era pésima y finalmente murió en la pobreza… No es uno de los escultores más conocidos pero creo que su trabajo debe ser reconocido en la historia del arte…

This great sculptor and poet was born in Milan in 1818… He studied sculpture at the Royal Imperial Academy of Fine Arts in Milan… He had great skill in sculpting veiled figures, which made him very famous, and his work was carried out at the Royal Academy of Arts… Finally, he became interested in galvanoplasty and worked at the Elkington & Co. company in Birmingham. However, his finances were poor and he ultimately died in poverty… He is not one of the most well-known sculptors, but I believe that his work should be recognized in the history of art…

#art, Mujeres artistas – Women Artists: Tamara Lempicka
Esta es una de las pintoras que no me gustan. Hay otras como Frida Kahlo y Tracy Emin… Los cuadros de Lempicka parecen hechos para las portadas de revistas de moda y sus modelos, o sea las mujeres que pinta, parecen altaneras y creídas… Lempicka nació en Varsovia, Polonia en 1898, dícese de su arte que es «Art Deco» y que sus cuadros la hicieron famosa en Francia y Estados Unidos… De alta cuna, familia de alcurnia, bien educada, hablaba varios idiomas… en 1918 se casa y se va a París y persigue estudios de arte… Fue la preferida de la farándula de Hollywood y la llamaron la «baronesa con pincel»… Pintaba retratos femeninos y desnudos al estilo art deco… dijo que sus influencias eran Boticelli, Bronzino y el cubismo y los empleaba juntos en un tipo de eclecticismo o fusion de estilos, pero su idea de cubismo ni se acerca a la de Picasso o Braque… Muere en 1980 en Cuernavaca, México.
+++
This is one of the painters I don’t like. There are others like Frida Kahlo and Tracy Emin… Lempicka’s paintings seem to be made for fashion magazine covers and her models, in other words, the women she paints, seem haughty and conceited… Lempicka was born in Warsaw, Poland in 1898, her art is said to be «Art Deco». Her paintings made her famous in France and the United States… Of high birth from a noble family, well-educated, she spoke several languages… in 1918 she got married and moved to Paris to pursue art studies… She was the favourite of Hollywood celebrities and was called the «baroness with a brush»… She painted female portraits and nudes in the art deco style… she said that her influences were Botticelli, Bronzino, and cubism, and she used them together in a type of eclecticism or fusion of styles, but her idea of cubism is far from that of Picasso or Braque… She died in 1980 in Cuernavaca, Mexico.
Os diría que aunque a mi no me guste, es una pintora importante que hay que conocer y reconocer, aunque ya la han conocido grandes como Barbara Streisand, Jack Nicholson y Madonna que tienen sus obras en sus colecciones…

I will say that although I do not like her work, she needs to be known as she is important, although big stars like Barbara Streisand, Jack Nicholson and Madonna already know her well and collect her paintings…
