Wifredo Lam (1902-1982) is often referred to as the "Cuban Picasso", a moniker that reflects both his artistic prowess and his profound connection to his homeland. Yet, Lam's art transcends mere imitation, weaving a unique tapestry of African, Cuban, and Surrealist influences. He was a master of syncretism, seamlessly blending disparate artistic traditions into a vibrant, visually arresting style.
