Carlos Garaicoa's work develops a dialogue between art and urban space through which he investigates the structure of contemporary cities. From a multidisciplinary approach, Garaicoa addresses cultural and political issues through the study of architecture, urbanism and history. One of his main thematic centers has always been post-revolutionary Havana, where he would develop much of his work and whose urban deterioration he witnessed firsthand. Through sculpture, drawing, video, photography and installation, the artist has approached, narratively and critically, the modernist utopian architecture and the collapse of the main ideologies of the twentieth century.
