The Artistic Journey of Jorge Camacho

Although he never received formal art training, he became well versed in contemporary painting by the end of the 1940s. His early explorations included a year spent in Mexico, where he investigated the sources of Mayan culture. Following exhibitions in Havana, he moved to Paris in 1959, where he adopted Surrealism.
