SynopsisCB Hoyo is the rebellious young Cuban artist who burst onto the art scene in 2017, riding the viral wave of social media. Driven by his natural instinct and raw talent, this self-taught artist has built a multidisciplinary practice that has made him one of the best emerging artists on the market. Hoyo is one of those rare artists whose work reverberates with a broad and varied echo through his humorous exploration of human thought and behaviour. His simple but prolific commentary is the fruit of his observations and concerns: the artist captures the essence of contemporary society, challenging the preconditioned perceptions of his audience and thus creating a state of increased awareness to reflect on the new, bizarre normality in which we live., Words about masterpieces, on masterpieces: the irreverent pop art of an emerging Cuban painter Since he first burst onto the scene in 2017, the prolific, self-taught Cuban painter CB Hoyo (born 1995) has enjoyed an enormous popularity both online and in the art industry: he has more than 500,000 Instagram followers and has held multiple solo shows throughout the world. Hoyo's work comprises "fakes" of works by canonical artists such as Warhol, Banksy, Matisse and Rothko, which he paints over with his own irreverent commentary. In one painting, titled It's a Fake Magritte , Hoyo depicts Magritte's famous The Treachery of Images complete with its well-known pronouncement, "Ceci n'est pas une pipe." Above this, Hoyo has painted in red, "This is not a Magritte." Hoyo's art, relying on blunt humor and Dada-esque irreverence, embraces the new chaotic normality in which we live. This hardcover volume, the artist's first monograph, contains 170 reproductions., Words about masterpieces, on masterpieces: the irreverent pop art of an emerging Cuban painter Since he first burst onto the scene in 2017, the prolific, self-taught Cuban painter CB Hoyo (born 1995) has enjoyed an enormous popularity both online and in the art industry: he has more than 500,000 Instagram followers and has held multiple solo shows throughout the world.
