Good conditions.
Wifredo Lam is don't only Cuba's greatest artist, bust also the first black artist in historiography. He was a member of the "Negro" movement. Lam's style is the result of his usual travels: primitive graffiti with clear cubist influences in a surrealsit atmosphere.
By now an internationally renowed artist, Lam tried to combine Paris with Cuba, his country of origin, where he closely followed political events.
Today some of the artist's works belong to the collections of the Tate Gallery in London, others to the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid, still others to the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the National Gallery of Art in Washington.
The Lithograph :
Artistic printing is a technique with which artworks could be multiplied through the use of engraved matrices and could become very popular. There is a large variety of engraving techniques defined by the matrix material. Today the engraving techniques have not changed at all once their strict function of "image multipliers" has slowly disappeared because of the advent of photography.
XXe Siécle :
A wonderful French art magazine, the XXe siècle was founded by Gualtieri di San Lazzaro , pseudonym of Giuseppe Antonio Leandro Papa (1904-1974), writer and Italian art editor.

Wifredo Lam
Wifredo Lam was an Afro-Cuban artist best known for his unique Surrealist aesthetic that combined European artistic movements with the imagery of his native country.
“I responded always to the presence of factors that emanated from our history and our geography, tropical flowers, and black culture,” Lam once said.
In one of his most famous paintings, The Jungle (1943), these various influences are melded together, onto a single large-scale canvas. Born Wifredo Oscar de la Concepción Lam y Castilla on December 8, 1902 in Sagua la Grande, Cuba, the painter moved to Madrid, Spain in 1923 to study with Fernando Álvarez de Sotomayor, who had been the teacher of famed Surrealist Salvador Dalí.
Lam moved to Paris after seeing an exhibition of Pablo Picasso’s work in Spain. Having arrived in the French capital, he introduced himself to Picasso who subsequently showed Lam his collection of African and Oceanic artworks. The two artists' interaction figured heavily in Lam’s work throughout the remainder of his career. He died on September 11, 1982 in Paris, France at the age of 79.
Today, the artist’s works are held in the collections of the Tate Gallery in London, the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., among others.
