Nine Incantations, 2010

Ricardo Brey (born 1955) is a child of the Cuban Revolution. He is one of the pioneer artists of Cuban New Art which began in 1891. Disillusioned by the ideals of the Cuban Revolution as corrupted by the regime of Fidel Castro, Brey participated in this key event along with many notable Cuban artists, writers and art critics.

More than twenty years after leaving Cuba, Brey was given the first retrospective of his work at the Museo Nacional Bellas Artes in Havana (2014). Belgium, Brey’s adopted country, presented the first European retrospective of his work the Museum of Contemporary Art, Antwerp.
