Jose Bedia is a Cuban artist that specializes with the Abstract style of painting. He began his studies at Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes in Cuba. Many of Jose Bedia's works have a sharp focus on spirituality and primitive cultures. Another unique use of his style is to showcase conflict between machines and nature. Since the late 1970s, Jose Bedia has participated in numerous collective exhibitions with other artists and his artwork appears throughout many museums in the United States. Although he's not involved with any particular movement, Jose Bedia was part of a group of Cuban-American artists known as the 80's Generation group. The specialization of this group had a strong focus on Afro-Cuban devotional practices. Another well known artist that sprang from this group was Ana Mendieta. In addition to his paintings, Jose Bedia creates sculpture installations as well that reflect his interest in primitive cultures. (Artist website) Read Less
