Carlos Garaicoa (b. 1967) is a Cuban contemporary artist known for his thought-provoking works that explore the intersections of architecture, urban decay, and socio-political realities. His photographic works, such as this chromogenic C-print, challenge viewers to consider the fragility of modern cities and the narratives embedded within their structures. Garaicoa’s work is often compared to that of artists like Alfredo Jaar and Vik Muniz, who similarly address political and cultural themes through photography and mixed media. His works have been exhibited internationally and are included in prestigious collections such as the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), Tate Modern, and the Art Institute of Chicago, making this piece a compelling acquisition for collectors of contemporary photography and conceptual art.
