Loló Soldevilla

  • concrete art

Before Loló Soldevilla gained recognition for her geometric compositions, she served as a diplomat in Paris during the late 1940s. This period in Europe proved transformative, as she immersed herself in the burgeoning concrete art movement. She eventually returned to Havana, where she co-founded the Galería Color-Luz, a space dedicated to the promotion of non-figurative art in a country then dominated by traditional aesthetic values.

Biography

Soldevilla approached her canvas with the precision of a mathematician. Her work focuses on the interaction of primary colours and rigid geometric shapes, such as squares and circles. By arranging these elements in calculated sequences, she creates a sense of equilibrium and order. She rejected decorative excess, preferring to investigate how specific placements of line and plane generate visual tension and spatial depth within a flat surface.

Modern collectors value Soldevilla for the stark clarity of her prints. Her work functions as a study in reduction, stripping away narrative content to reveal the mechanics of pure form. These pieces offer a stable, quiet visual experience that complements contemporary interiors. Her contribution to Latin American abstraction remains a clear example of how disciplined geometry can produce a powerful, lasting visual impact.
