“ The verb makes itself voice in the word and gives us its face in the image. That Picasso and Gauguin were not in Cuba, it could be true. However, their glances and hands in the artwork remain alert waiting for another hand and glance which find out inspiration in drawing and color, in composition and texture of the radiant body that gives perpetuity to all that in him lodges life and work... “
