This is an outstanding painting by the renowned Cuban artist, Raul Enmanuel Pozo. It is a wonderful example of his abstract tropical landscapes. This painting measures 30" x 22", and is acrylic, charcoal and materials (wood fibers or crushed marble, with gesso paste) on 140 lb. Arches Aquarelle paper, with deckled edges. This artist is a master with works on paper. He uses wood fibers, crushed marble, and fibers to achieve the texture, in addition to working on a foundation of gesso modeling paste. Paintings of this size currently sell for between $1,200.00 to $1800.00, in the galleries. We guarantee the authenticity of this painting, and will offer a certificate of authenticity on our gallery letterhead. This painting is in very good condition, and is unframed. It is signed in pencil, and dated. It is also signed, dated, and titled, verso.


The origins of his iconography are in the early work of Wifredo Lam. One can see elements that are a reminder of this great artist's work. Though Enmanuel has used these elements as a point of inspiration, he has succeeded in making the work entirely his own. He has focused on Lam's early jungle work as a jumping off point, to create a body of symbols, and a language that depicts a reverence for Mother Nature, and his work has a power and intensity that is rarely found in contemporary art. We at MLA search for contemporary artists that have both conceptual genius, and technical mastery. A combination of qualities rarely found today, but present in abundance in the work of this brilliant artist. Enmanuel was selected to create two huge murals in Cuba. One is a 40 ft. mural at the Railway Station in Santiago, and the other is a 30 ft. mural in the lobby of the Melia Cohiba, which is the top hotel in Eastern Cuba. These are both extremely prestigious projects, and have placed this great artist in an important historical context.

 

Description

This is a wonderful example of Enmanuel's command of the paper medium. His texture, compositions, and technical mastery continue to astound. This is recent work, and though his symbology tends toward the abstract, he has hinted that these paintings are representative of feminine, divine beings of a benevolent, and supportive nature. Much of his work employs the palm jungle as a basis for the profound semiology, and  iconography of the work. There is great power in these paintings, and the forms, symbols, and figures in the end, compose these lovely abstract, tropical landscapes, that he has become known for. Though one can find points of reference that were inspired by the Latin Masters, the work has become entirely his own. There are several more images from this series available.

Perfect Fit for Full Cooling System Overhaul on BMW 330xi
I ordered this Engine Coolant Hose (part #11537545890) for my 2006 BMW 330xi as part of a comprehensive cooling system overhaul. Along with this hose, I had my mechanic replace the thermostat, water pump, radiator, expansion tank, and all other related hoses. This hose fit exactly as expected—no issues during installation. It’s been three weeks since the job was completed, and everything is performing flawlessly. No leaks, no warning lights, and the engine temperature remains stable under all driving conditions. Although this is not a genuine OEM part, the quality appears solid and it matched up perfectly with the original in terms of length, shape, and connector alignment. For anyone looking to refresh their aging BMW’s cooling system, this hose is a reliable and cost-effective option. Just be sure to verify the part number for compatibility before purchasing. Highly recommended if you’re doing preventive maintenance or replacing a failed hose as part of a larger cooling system repair.
