"Street in Old Havana - Expressionist" captures the atmospheric intensity of a late summer afternoon in Cuba. Taken in September 2024, this piece is a key work in the Captured Landscapes: Cuba - New York series, a multimedia collaboration between Ildiko Tillmann and renowned Cuban jazz pianist, Elio Villafranca.
Existing at the crossroads of fine art street photography and expressionist painting, this image has been artistically enhanced to convey the physical sensation of the city. The digital manipulation adds a sense of motion, making the colonial houses appear fluid—melting under the relentless heat of the Caribbean sun. Yet, amidst this surreal atmosphere, the people walk by undisturbed, a testament to the resilience and rhythm of daily life in Havana.
The Aesthetic: Painterly Urban Art This piece is ideal for collectors looking for deeper meaning in their decor. It moves beyond a standard travel snapshot, offering a dreamlike, almost hallucinatory quality. It fits perfectly in spaces designed for creativity and conversation, such as a listening room, a writer’s study, or an eclectic living area.
