About the Item
A fantastic sculpture by Cuban Folk Art artist Saturnino Portuonda "Pucho" Odio (1928-1997) who was known for his animated cultural caricatures and painted wood carvings of his fellow Cuban Americans, depicting their everyday lives. This piece is titled "Patty Cake."
The work is signed and dated (1981) to underside of male figure's left foot by the artist.
Saturnino Portuondo “Pucho” Odio was born in Santiago de Cuba in 1928. He lived and worked in Cuba until he was 35 years old when he emigrated to the United States by way of Canada. It wasn't until a few tears later, after he had settled in New York City, that he gave up his job as a barber to pursue his art and carving full time often using pieces of found wood to create his sculptures. He is remembered as one of the more celebrated and only Cuban born artist to have worked primarily in the United States.
Provenance: From a long held Los Angeles private collection of an award winning writer and artist.
A very special work by a very special artist. Would clearly be a great addition to any Cuban Art or Folk Art collection or make for an eye catching stand alone accent artwork in about any setting.

View AllDora De Larios Signed Mexican American California Studio Pottery Sculpture
By Dora De Larios
Located in Studio City, CA
A fabulous, rare, and unique large horse and rider sculpture/ candelabra by famed Mexican American California studio art potter Dora De Larios. It was recently brought to our attention by a collector of her work that this piece was featured in a presentation at the Scripps Fine Arts Foundation and it was made in 1959. It is one of her earlier works. Quite rare and special in this respect.
De Larios was born in Los Angeles to Mexican immigrant parents. She grew up in the artistic Silver Lake district near downtown Los Angeles amongst Mexican and Nisei Japanese immigrants. As a result, De Larios was heavily influenced by ancient American...

Mexican Dia De Los Muertos Day of the Dead La Catrina Folk Art Figure Sculpture
Located in Studio City, CA
A quite wonderful Mexican Day of the Dead (Dia De Los Muertos festival held throughout Mexico) La Catrina symbolic skeleton figure.
La Catrina is the festival’s most recognizable image/figure. She is the model of a high-society woman who has met Death, her maker. She represents something between the fear induced by her skeletal form and the revelry exhibited by the comical way she is typically portrayed, making her a perfect symbol of the Mexican holiday. She often appears in paintings, window displays, and costumes all around Mexico during the Day of the Dead festivities.
La Catrina was originally conceived in the early 1900s by newspaper illustrator and printmaker José Guadalupe Posada...
