About the Item

Cubist Latin Jazz Composition — Vibrant Mid-Century Style Painting, Abstract Cubist Figurative Painting with Musical Motifs, Signed Gaby Riva Afro-Caribbean Cubist Rhythm Scene — Large Colorful Modernist Painting, Bold Geometric Cubist Music Scene — Latin American Modernist Style This dynamic acrylic-on-canvas work captures a vibrant fusion of Cubist geometry and Afro-Caribbean spirit, echoing the energy of mid-20th-century Latin American modernism. Bold planes of saturated color — warm ochres, deep blues, lush greens, and fiery reds — intersect and overlay to suggest figures, musical instruments, and rhythmic movement. The stylized hands, mask-like faces, and overlapping shapes evoke the visual language of Cubism, while the palette and composition channel the lively atmosphere of Caribbean music and dance. Executed with confident brushwork and strong contour lines, the piece feels at once structured and spontaneous: a vivid moment of musical expression frozen in paint. Signed “Gaby Riva” at the lower left. Medium Materials: Acrylic on canvas (stretched or cradled Dimensions: 40" High x 30" Wide x 1" Deep Condition: Original in good condition — no visible craquelure or water damage. Display Suggestion: Hung framed or unframed or under museum-glass, this artwork will command attention as a statement piece in a modern interior — ideal for a living room, studio, lobby, or corporate space seeking bold Latin-inspired modernism.
