In 2019, Mart\u00ednez Celaya actively participated in the <strong>Detr\u00e1s del Muro<\/strong> project as part of the 13th Havana Biennial, contributing the mesmerizing sculptural piece, <strong>The Sugar House<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The temporary exhibition, titled <strong>Los muertos llaman al alba<\/strong>, will be inaugurated at the Edificio de Arte Cubano, a prominent space within the National Museum of Fine Arts in Havana. This showcase brings together eight large-format masterpieces, meticulously crafted to encapsulate the essence of Cuba and the specific environment in which they will be displayed. Notably, Jorge Fern\u00e1ndez Torres, the director of the institution, highlights in the accompanying catalog a distinct \u00abarticulation of a unique universe, with undeniable connections to many of his previous works\u00bb apparent in Mart\u00ednez Celaya&#8217;s creations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a prelude to his return to Cuba and a focal point for the exhibition&#8217;s promotion, the artist has chosen the image of <strong>Los viajeros<\/strong>. This work resonates deeply within Cuban art, imagery, and spirituality. Fern\u00e1ndez Torres elucidates, \u00abThe boat of the three Juans accompanying Our Lady of Charity floats in the canvas space, and the sacred image of the saint has been intentionally omitted,\u00bb underscoring the artist&#8217;s dedication to exploring the interplay between the present and the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mart\u00ednez Celaya&#8217;s prolific artistic production encompasses painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, video, photography, and various other media. Enjoying international acclaim, his work has found a home in significant public collections in the United States and Europe. Additionally, it has been exhibited in prestigious galleries and museums across the United States, Mexico, Germany, Spain, Italy, Russia, and Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: National Museum of Fine Arts<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Translated by Luis E.
