Roberto Diago examines the condition of Afro-descendant Cubans within the social landscape of the Revolution. His cultural and sociological perspective allows him to fully grasp the effects of colonial processes on the nations that endured them. These traces are visible not only in forms of marginalization and segregation, but also at epistemic and linguistic levels.<\/p>

In recognition of the depth and relevance of his practice, Diago has been selected as the artist representing the National Pavilion of Cuba at the 61st Venice Biennale, which will take place from May 9 to November 22, 2026, across the Giardini and the Arsenale. This context amplifies his ongoing exploration of identity and resistance, situating his work within one of the most significant platforms for contemporary art. Diago denounces, exposes, and develops exercises in cultural resistance that enable him to speak from a self-aware, maroon subjectivity-one that asserts other religious affiliations, other canons of beauty, and other ways of seeing the white world that dominates the West.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
