Summary
At the time of his death in 2006, Agustin Fernandez ranked among Cuba's most outstanding artists. Defying simple categorization, today his work is most recognizable for its ambiguous and precariously balanced forms, erotic overtones, surreal juxtapositions, and metallic palette. In 1980 Brian de Palma's film Dressed to Killfamously included one of the artist's paintings, launching him into the public arena. This is the first comprehensive study of Fernandez's work, which has been exhibited and collected in major museums and private collections throughout Europe, the United States, and Latin America.
