The colourful monumental paintings of the Cuban-American contemporary artist >Spanning from 1985 to 2025, the richly illustrated book features paintings, murals, rare sketchbooks, and archival materials. It also includes essays by curators Jonathan Rider and Iván de la Nuez, alongside an intimate interview with Rey Parlá, his brother and creative collaborator. Central to the narrative is Parlá's profound reflection on his near-death experience with COVID-19, which deepens his exploration of home as a mosaic of memories and displacement. Celebrating his role as a cultural bridge, the monograph underscores his connections to a global community of friendships, travels, and collaborations. Parlá emerges as a poetic chronicler of surfaces, textures, and resilience—an artist whose work captures the luminous paths of exploration and belonging.
