Cuban-born Agustín Fernández (1928–2006) was a modern master, incorporating a non-dualistic visual language of figuration and abstraction. Juxtaposing anatomical images with subdued coloration, Fernández is an artist difficult to position within the color-saturated Cuban canon. His ambiguous forms are evocative of flesh and eros, represented through a monochromatic palette. Resonating with the broader modernist movement, Fernández’s work explores themes of exile, separation, and abandonment.
Self-identifying as a “painter of the brush,” Fernández was also an undisputed master of drawing. A first-rate draftsman, his works include depictions of ripped and folded paper, pins, hooks, belts, lines, and spikes. His aesthetic in both painting and drawing revolves around these iconographic elements, reflecting a world of aggression and conflict, physical pain, and metaphysical contemplation. Fernández examines these themes through a psychological lens.
