JAN VALDÉS TÉLLEZ (Cuba, 1979). "Cuqui cute", 2021. Oil on canvas. Attached certificate of authenticity issued by the artist. Signed, dated and titled on the back. Measurements: 50 x 50 cm; 56 x 56 cm (frame). The work of Jan Valdes Tellez is undoubtedly distinguished by its playful sense. Perhaps one of the characteristics that marks his creations will be his very personal way of facing "the tragic", "the serious", "the sacred", always from the joke. "Cuqui Cute" belongs to a series of pieces that is conceived as a selection of small divertimentos, where the artist explores, from the visual synthesis, problems of the Fine Arts and aesthetics through time. Inheritance and cyclicality as a source of creation, behind each desacralizing gesture of art, there are centuries of history and tradition. Jan Valdés Téllez is an artist of Cuban origin who currently resides in Madrid. He began his academic training at the Academia Nacional de Bellas Artes de San Alejandro in Havana, where he graduated in 2004. His works have been exhibited internationally, notably at the Toronto Art Fair, Canada, the Ludwin Foundation and the Fivars Galleries, Spain, among others. Certificate of authenticity issued by the artist is attached.

JAN VALDÉS TÉLLEZ (Cuba, 1979). "Hot dog", 2022-2023. Oil on canvas (triptych). Attached certificate of authenticity issued by the artist. Signed, dated and titled on the back. Measurements: 90 x 60 cm (x3); 90 x 180 cm (total). "Hot Dog" encapsulates the essence of contemporary life through the imaginative lens of Jan Valdes Tellez. The interconnection of scenarios creates a unique visual narrative that defies convention and celebrates the diversity of human experience. This triptych, part of the "3X2" series, first plays with the visuality of David Hockney and his idyllic constructions of California life. Jan Valdes Tellez, makes the aesthetics of the British master his own, and introduces in this paradise "the chaos factor". The triptych that reveals itself irreverent, in the apparent tranquility of the American dream, we are presented with hints of human drives, narrating an almost cinematographic story. The scene, captured with a direct and uninhibited gaze, fresh in its composition and in the choice of the chromatic palette, becomes a bold affirmation of the impulsive and free nature of life. The canvas does not skimp on humorous details, from cynicism, once again, the joy of living is celebrated. Jan Valdés Téllez is an artist of Cuban origin who currently resides in Madrid.
