The Antonio Gattorno Website features images as important and visually exciting as any of the great 20th century paintings already recognized as masterworks of the era.
Antonio Gattorno (Cuban, 1904-1980) was one of the pioneers of the modern art movement in Cuba. Gattorno was the first Cuban artist to achieve a reputation as a universal contemporary. Ernest Hemingway and John Dos Passos sponsored Gattorno's first U.S. exhibit in 1936. From the 1930's through the 1970's, reviews of his solo exhibitions in the New York Times and other important newspapers considered him a major talent and compared him to artists as diverse as Eduard Manet and Salvador Dali.
This site has been established to re-introduce the world to these images which are as fresh and exciting as the day they were finished.
Please take some time to browse through our galleries, or purchase the book, note cards and prints.
