compared to the extensive information about American artists.
Marco Valdes is part of the Havana-based collective Los Carpinteros
(The Carpenters) which has created some of the most important work to
emerge from Cuba in the past decade. Formed in 1991, the trio
(consisting of Marco Castillo Valdes, Dagoberto Rodríguez Sanchez, and,
until his departure in June 2003, Alexandre Arrechea) adopted their
name in 1994, deciding to renounce the notion of individual authorship
and refer back to an older guild tradition of artisans and skilled
laborers. Inter (showing 500 of 2062 characters). |
