Daniel Serra-Badue
Edition. 130/250
Daniel Serra Badué (b. 1914, Santiago de Cuba - d. 1996, New York): He studied art at various studios and institutions in Santiago de Cuba and Havana (both in Cuba), New York City, and Barcelona, Spain. He was a recipient of two Guggenheim Fellowships in 1938 and 1939. Considered by many the godfather of Cuban art in exile, Serra Badué was one of the first winners of a Cintas Fellowship and an early member of the board of the Cintas Foundation.
A surrealist painter and graphic artist, he is one of the artists featured in Artists in Exile, a series of four television documentaries directed by Ray Blanco in 1994. He once wrote that his art was always connected to his homeland. “There's a relationship between me, as an artist, and the land where I was born,” he wrote. “I don't feel like a foreigner in any place, because I continue to create my own vision of the world.”
