Yoan Capote is a Conceptual artist who lives and works in Havana. His provocative work examines how we physically and emotionally respond to socio-political conditions around us.
With characteristic wit, Capote addresses such issues as stress, hunger, fear, sexual desire, and economic survival using a diverse range of solutions and techniques, from sculpture and painting to installations, photography, and video.
Capote graduated from the Instituto Superior de Arte, Havana, and is the recipient of awards including the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation fellowship and the Pollock-Krasner Foundation award in New York.
