Havana Deco

Exteriors and interior spaces, the graphic artists who spearheaded Art Deco's popularity, monumental sculpture, and the contributions of painters are explored here in rich detail.

An unparalleled tour of the Art Deco-style architecture, interiors,
decoration, and art objects of Havana, this colorful book shows the work of Cuban artists, open to the winds of change and to outside influences, who filtered the movement born in Paris through the dazzling beauty of Caribbean nature and made the art their own.

The New York Times - Steven Heller

Havana Deco…is an eye-opening display of a not entirely lost Havana, where, judging from the beautiful images, some of the jewel-like structures have been preserved, if not always rehabilitated…the most surprising sections are devoted to interiors…Until travel to Havana is more accessible, this book will whet the appetite of every Deco connoisseur.
