José Bedia Biography
José Braulio Bedia Valdés was born on January 13, 1959, in Havana, Cuba. He is considered one of the most prominent figures in contemporary Cuban art and a leading voice of the so-called “New Cuban Art” movement of the 1980s, which marked a turning point in the island’s visual arts and a new approach to art’s social role in Cuba.
Bedia began his studies at the San Alejandro Academy of Fine Arts and was among the first graduates of Havana’s newly founded Instituto Superior de Arte (ISA), where he earned his degree with honors. In 1980, he participated in the groundbreaking exhibition “Volumen I,” which reshaped the Cuban art scene.
His work is characterized by a neo-primitivist figurative style that blends cross-cultural references. Deeply influenced by spirituality, Bedia was initiated into the Palo Monte religious tradition and has long been drawn to indigenous cultures of Latin America, Africa, and North America. Through painting, drawing, sculpture, and installation, he explores the worldviews of cultures marginalized by the West.
In 1990, he represented Cuba at the Venice Biennale. That same year, he left Cuba, settling first in Mexico and later, in 1993, in the U.S. He currently lives in Miami. In 1993, he was awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship. His work is part of major collections such as the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, the Museo Extremeño e Iberoamericano in Spain, and the Pérez Art Museum Miami.

Bibliographie /Literature
Gaston Suisse, splendeur du laque art déco. Emmanuel Bréon. Somogy Éditions d'art, Paris 2013, reproduite page 105 (un autre exemplaire reproduit)
The artist made a wood engraving of which he made about twenty prints himself.
These proofs were not marketed as is, Gaston Suisse reworked each of the proofs using Indian ink washes in order to obtain different effects for each proof, which are thus unique original works.
Born in 1896 in a family of artists, his father Georges was a close friend of Siegfried Bing and a great lover of Japanese art and a bibliophile. He passed his taste for art to his son whom he often took to draw at the Botanic Garden . Around 1910, Gaston Suisse, who hasn't entered yet the artistic school, met Paul Jouve, then 18 years his elder, who was already famous.
In 1911, at the age of 17, he entered the National School of Decorative Art where he followed the teachings of Paul Renouard. Thanks to his knowledge and taste for the Japanese art, he chose lacquer painting as his specialty. His practice of this noble and demanding subject were so much appreciated that he was awarded with two gold medals in 1913 and 1914. Mobilized during the war , he joined the army and go in Salonika where he found his friend Jouve. In 1918, he finished his studies at the School of Applied Arts in order to perfect his training. He learned in particular the techniques of gilding and oxidation of metals. The first productions of Gaston Suisse, furniture and objects in lacquer with geometrical patterns, were an instant success and Suisse was appointed as member of Salon d'Automne in 1924, the very year of his first exhibition. Considered as an artist-decorator, his sincere and deep friendship with Jouve linked him in parallel with the groups of the animaliers of the Jardin des Plantes and became a close friend of Edouard-Marcel Sandoz. When travelling to Maghreb and Middle-East between 1923 and 1925, he produced numerous drawings representing antelopes, apes and fennec foxes...
