Aerial Abstraction # 18 Painting

Eduardo Verdecia is a Cuban artist. He was born in Holguin, Cuba in 1978, where he received his BFA from the Academy of the Fine Arts “El Alba”, in 1998. Verdecia emerged onto the art scene with his first solo show in 1998 “Suspicious shadows of a paranoid specimen´s traces” at the Art Center of Holguin, Cuba, a major retrospective of all his work during the student stage. He managed to translate his discontent with late 20th century Cuba´s immediate reality through anecdotes arising out of the relationship among society and individuals. The same year he began working with the Swiss art dealer Christian Zeller, and he has participated in numerous national and international exhibitions. In 2001, Verdecia immigrated to the United States, where because of new experiences, and a completely new context, he decided to reinvent himself as an abstract painter. He has exhibited his work at 3rd Street Gallery in Philadelphia, and Lancaster Museum of Art, among other galleries in The United States. In 2015 Mulberry Art Studios, in Lancaster, PA presented a solo show with his new body of work “Aerial Abstraction” based on the transformation of Google Maps images into visually striking colorful abstract paintings. In 2018 he won First Prize at 3rd Street Gallery "Winter Juried Collection Exhibition" At the present he lives and works in the United States.
