Roberto Fabelo

Roberto Fabelo (José Roberto Fabelo Pérez), (* January 28, 1950, in Guáimaro, Camagüey, Cuba), is a Cuban painter, sculptor, and illustrator.

Fabelo's art is characterized by bizarre and dreamlike images that combine elements of reality and fantasy. He pays meticulous attention to detail and uses a symbolic interpretation in his works Using vibrant colors and intricate compositions in his paintings, drawings, and sculptures, he often depicts fantastical creatures, anthropomorphic animals, and human figures.

Because of his rich symbolism and allegorical storytelling, Fabelo is often compared to Goya. The artist is considered by some to be the Honoré Daumier of contemporary Cuban art, whose works have references to Dante's "Divine Comedy", the magical realism of Gabriel García Márquez, Hieronymus Bosch, the skills of the Dutch and Flemish masters and Rembrandt.

Identity, the human condition and the relationship between people and nature are the main themes of his complex representational art. Provided by Wikipedia
