The 1960 "Visions de Cuba" poster project by Yanes was created for an exhibition held at La Maison de la Pensée Française in Paris from December 2nd to 23rd, 1960. This event aimed to showcase Cuba’s evolving artistic and cultural identity at a crucial moment in its history, providing French audiences with a unique perspective on the island’s visual arts.
Yanes, a prominent designer, played a key role in shaping the visual language of Cuban art during this period. The exhibition reflected the rich artistic diversity of Cuba, featuring works that explored national heritage, social transformation, and contemporary artistic movements. As Cuba underwent significant political and cultural shifts, the event served as an important platform for international dialogue, positioning Cuban art within a broader global context.
Held in the heart of Paris, Visions de Cuba remains a significant moment in the history of Cuban exhibitions abroad. The poster, designed as part of this project, is a valuable artifact representing not only the event itself but also the artistic ambitions of the time.
