“Joel Besmar – one of the most reflexive, focused and agonized painters of contemporary Cuban art – has made the book a major thematic axis of his current body of work. In fact, it might better be said that this artist has succeeded in making us rediscover the mysterious meaning of the book as object, which, since the earliest times of human civilization, has been imbued with symbolic quality.”
