Andres Cabrera-Garcia is a Cuban-born artist who has lived and worked in Cuba, Spain, and the United States. Cabrera-Garcia’s work explores identity, place, and belonging as it relates to the genre of landscape, the process of oil painting, and the materiality of the painting medium. Landscapes in their native beauty, the many ways they ebb and flow from natural to urban, and how they are altered to become something other than a particular region’s historical or cultural legacy are recurrent themes in his work. Exhibitions with this theme include “Circumscribed Landscapes” at Deering Estate in 2023 and “Krome Avenue: Paintings by Andres Cabrera” at Coral Gables Museum in 2019. He won 3rd place in the 8th Paint-me Miami competition in 2019. Cabrera-Garcia has been a studio Artist-in-Residence at Deering Estate since 2023.
