Abstract
The evolution of Cuban cultural forms after the triumph of the Revolution of 1959 has brought to light a new dynamic potential for art. The ideologies regarding social relations presented by influentially radical intellectuals such as Karl Marx, José MartÃ, Ernesto “Che†Guevara and Tomás Gutiérrez Alea have all informed a new understanding of the importance and necessity of the artist to society. Strongly informed by the postmodern and postcolonial experiences, contemporary Cuban artists are exploring new forms of expression as they relate to issues of race and identity.
