YURI MARTINEZ RAMOS "PATCHES" OIL ON CANVAS, SIGNED, TITLED CUBAN-AMERICAN, DATED 2012 40 X 30 INCHES Patches symbolize the destruction and erosion of Cuba. A ruined country stitched together by patches that blend the society like an old rag pant. The main buffoonery image depicts the old system, no more speech to play when you only have a broken instrument. Yuri Martinez Ramos was born in Havana, Cuba on November 24, 1964. He studied at the Elemental School of Plastic Arts from 1975 – 1979 and the National School of the Arts from 1979 – 1983. Martinez’ figurative paintings have been compared to Botero because of his satirical social commentary.

He now lives and works in Texas. Papillon Gallery...
