Cuban Art


Over five decades, her work appeared in more than fifty solo
exhibitions and more than one hundred group exhibitions across
Europe and the Americas, including presentations in Paris, Lausanne,
Brussels, Amsterdam, Toulouse, Silkeborg, Larvik, Geneva,
Barcelona, London, Budapest, Venice, Miami, New York, Mexico City,
Caracas, and more. In 1978, she received a Cintas Foundation
Fellowship and was named a Chevalier of the French Order of Arts
and Letters. In 1999, the Musée du Pilori in Niort, France, organized
a retrospective of her work.

Pellón’s practice extended beyond painting. She produced collages
and prints, designed tapestries, and created sets and costumes
for two feature films by the French director Marcel Hanoun.
She illustrated books by French writers and publications.
For the final ten years of her life, she was represented
by Cernuda Arte in Coral Gables, who are now the stewards
of her archives. The artist died in Paris in 2014.

Centennial brings together more than twenty paintings, collages,
and works on paper created between 1970 and 2014, tracing
Pellón’s Paris years through the final period of her career.
