About this artwork

"Shell me!" It is a fight between a fictional Fidel Castro (former dictator of Cuba) and an alien, the scene has a high erotic content due to the president's fame as a womanizer. The artist likes to recreate events with characters from our times doing things that never happened or that happened in an unknown past, he likes to play with timelessness and the hidden powers that dominate the world, and ask questions such as: why do we perceive a events… in a determined way and most of us agree on what we see as if we were programmed? The idea of the title comes from the fact that the testicles of the red horse are exposed and while she was painting it a friend told her that they were ready to be cut, and in turn it matches the surname of the former Cuban president: Castro.

« The art must be how to see a high-performance athlete play or a scientist talk about quantum physics and we know that not everyone can do it. »

Frank Arias is an artist based in Spain whose paintings have been exhibited nationally and in Cuba. He cites his sources of inspiration as originating from the great mystery of life outside of our planet. Arias is intrigued about the genesis of life and the possibility of civilizations that are more advanced than us. His figurative compositions teem with diverse characters and scenes that are not found in reality, portrayed with a hint of irony and satire.
