Eduardo Santana - Cabezas ornamentadas VII

This work is 14 x 19.5" (35 x 50cm). Acrylic, graphite and watercolor on paper. Done in 2023.

Eduardo Santana is a teacher of fine art at one of the Universities in Havana. He is a highly skilled artist, with a substantial degree of conceptual brilliance. Surrealism is a challenging genre for any artist. Some of the Cuban artists tackle this challenge as well as artists anywhere in the world today. Where do these influences come from?

Santana has participated in nearly 50 group shows, several solo shows, and has work in collections in Spain, Germany, Portugal, the Netherlands, Norway, the US, Canada, France, the UK, Italy, Mexico, Guatemala, Venezuela, Argentina, Slovakia, and Switzerland. 

Throughout Latin America, the European art movement Surrealism was enthusiastically accepted by certain segments of the artistic community. Many artists were drawn to Surrealism’s emphasis on the irrational, the emotional, the personal, and the subconscious. In general, European Surrrealist artists examined “primitive” art and folk art to discover an instinctive spirit, a reference point that was relevant to Latin American artists searching to establish a distinctive art based on their own multifaceted traditions.

Highly influential in the implantation of Surrealism in Latin America was the founder of the movement, the French poet-philosopher Andre Breton. In 1934 the Chilean artist Roberto Matta, who had worked in France for Le Corbusier, abandoned his training in architecture, so that he could pursue art in Paris, where he became associated with Breton and the Surrealists. His early paintings placed nonrecognizable biomorphic forms onto a receding spatial grid. In his later works scratched and drawn figures occasionally take on the appearance of menacing Latin American generals, operating as one of the few references to his homeland in his otherwise generalized time and space.

Surrealism also allowed many Latin American artists to explore their individual ancestry. Cuban artist Wifredo Lam joined Breton and his Surrealist circle in 1940, after they went into self-exile in Martinique. When Lam returned to Cuba, he began to examine his own African heritage: his mother was Afro-Cuban, and his godmother was a Santeria priestess. He explored this heritage in his work, depicting tropical fantasies filled with forms suggestive of African sculpture, masks, and figures. This emphasis on African forms also related to his contact with the Surrealists, who saw all “primitive” (narrowly meaning non-Western) artistic expression as connected with humanity’s common subconscious forms and experiences. Lam was particularly influenced by his contact with Picasso, who early in the century had used African sculpture as an important inspiration for Cubism.

Outstanding filter!
Color: White
This has been brilliant at getting dust removed from the air my breathing at night is so much better because it gets pollen out of the air and keeps everything fresh! I haven't used the auto control or sleep mode on purpose but it looks great runs quiet and does a wacking great job!

Great working air purifier for bedroom
Color: White
Works really well. The pre filter captures so much dust you can really tell it's working as it should. The screen shows how dirty the air is and you can watch it go down as it cleans, didn't think we would need that but it's been surprisingly satisfying to see the quality visually. Very quiet on the lowest setting, easy to sleep with.. gives a nice white noise. The highest still isn't bad, the volume is similar to like a normal tower fan. Design is nice, it's a good looking machine. The only negative would be how bright the small display screen is at night but we just cover it if needed. Haven't tried the oil extract diffuser and probably won't. Works very well for cigarette smell! I'm sure if we had two it would completely remove the smoke smell. Overall would definitely buy again.

Sound not an issue
Color: White
I've had this for about a month, so far works great. I smoke Cigars in my apartment and it is working good. Clears the smoke great even with the filter it came within is a bit loud on the 2nd and third setting, but it is not distracting. I leave it on the first setting over night and its quiet. Next morning there is no cigar smell. Of course I empty ash try. When I come home from work my place smells great and I hardly see see any dust on my glass TV stand and tables. I've read some bad reviews on the sound, but its something you don't hear when tv or radio is on. It really sounds like having a fan on. I would recommend this for the price. I've had other air purifiers no difference on sound.

MOOKA Air Purifier Rocks!
Color: White
I put my Mooka Air Purifier through a very hard test running it 24 hours a day 7 days a week 30 days in a 275 sq ft area so I could provide an accurate review. My husband and I have a dog, woodburning stove, our 115-year-old is close to the road and there is a limestone quarry across the street; our house is extraordinarily dusty. We noticed an improvement the very first day using our Mooka! The nighttime setting is silent so I was able to use it all night. When we’re in the room, we use settings 1 or 2 and can watch TV. When we are out of the room, we use setting 3. Setting 3 can be loud but that is okay, I need that extra power and it does a fantastic job. My Mooka is lightweight, easy to use and a compact workhorse. Another fantastic feature is the highly effective, affordable replacement Hepa filters that have a washable foam pre-filter. I paid under $80 for our Mooka and it is worth every penny. We are ordering a second one. The proof is in our air quality at home. Tried to upload photos of the filter, but could not, sorry!
