Vision
Art Sólido is an editorial and international art magazine based in New York, dedicated to the transformative power of art and literature. We envision a world where creativity fosters cultural understanding, critical reflection, and social change. By bridging disciplines, languages, and generations, Art Sólido seeks to build a global community where artists, writers, and thinkers engage in dialogue that expands the limits of contemporary culture and renews its connection with tradition. Mission
Art Sólido is committed to publishing, curating, and promoting projects that explore the intersection of art, literature, and society. As both an editorial and a magazine, we publish books, essays, and artistic collaborations that highlight the voices shaping today’s culture while revisiting the classics from new perspectives. Our mission is to support emerging and established creators, foster cross-cultural exchange, and affirm the power of creativity as a catalyst for knowledge, empathy, and transformation. More than a publication, Art Sólido is a living platform for ideas—where art becomes a form of dialogue and a space for renewal.

My Friend John Lennon: Exile, Memory, and the long and winding road to New York

“I was not born in New York. I was born in a place where saying New York could get you in trouble.” This is how Henry Ballate’s My Friend John Lennon begins. The sentence seems simple, but it contains almost the entire book: two geographies, two systems of life, and a distance the narrator will spend decades crossing. Between a small Cuban town and Manhattan’s Upper West Side unfolds an autobiography in which John Lennon functions less as a character than as a presence—an invisible interlocutor accompanying the author from childhood to the city where he eventually makes his home....

Podcast Episode: Teddy Sandoval: Mariconógraphy and the Art of Being Here

Pip: Art Sôlido this week takes us somewhere between a Los Angeles gay bar, a Xerox machine, and an institution that never had a campus — which is either a provocation or a masterclass, depending on where you're standing. Mara: Henry Ballate's writing covers Teddy Sandoval's work and the exhibition now at El Museo del Barrio — masculinity as image, reclamation as method, and what happens when an artist invents his own authority....

Podcast Episode: Teddy Sandoval: Mariconógraphy and the Art of Being Here

Pip: Art Sôlido, where the art world's blind spots get their own exhibition catalog — and occasionally their own invented institution. Mara: Today we're following into the territory of q***r Chicano art, self-invention, and what it means to build a community through reproduction rather than recognition. Pip: Let's start with Teddy Sandoval, the mustache, and the school that never had a campus....

Teddy Sandoval: Mariconógraphy and the Art of Being Here

There is a peculiar insistence to the men in Teddy Sandoval’s work. They return again and again: mustached, shirtless, muscular, dressed as cowboys, cholos, leathermen, or homeboys. Sometimes they have no faces at all. What identifies them is not individuality but a collection of signs—the mustache, the torso, the open shirt, the chaps, the pose. Sandoval understood something remarkably contemporary about masculinity: before it is an identity, it can be an image....

250 Years of America: 25 Artists Through Whom We Can See the History of American Art

As the United States marks the 250th anniversary of its birth as a nation, Art-Sólido presents a special selection of twenty-five artists through whom we can trace the evolution of American art across two and a half centuries. This is not intended as a definitive canon, but as an exclusive Art-Sólido selection created for this historic occasion. The artists gathered here allow us to follow the remarkable transformation of American visual culture: from the formation of a national identity after independence, to the rise of landscape as a distinctly American language, the emergence of modernism, New York’s ascent as an international art capital, and the later expansion of the field toward questions of race, migration, memory, and identity....

Podcast Episode: Art, Faith, And Cuban Memory

Pip: Art Sôlido this week takes you underground, into a gala, and across six decades of Cuban art history — which is a more ambitious itinerary than most people manage on a long weekend. Mara: The posts move through public art in the New York subway, a monumental installation about faith and institutional authority, and a Florida museum where two donations across sixty years are quietly rewriting how Cuban art gets preserved....

Two Donations, One Cuban Art History

Collecting, Philanthropy, and the Continuity of Cuban Art at the Museum of Arts & Sciences in Daytona Beach In the history of a museum collection, a donation means far more than the addition of a group of objects. It moves artworks from the private sphere into the public patrimony and, in some measure, determines what part of a culture will remain accessible to future generations....

Dos donaciones, una historia del arte cubano

Coleccionismo, filantropía y continuidad del arte cubano en el Museum of Arts & Sciences de Daytona Beach En la historia de una colección museística, una donación significa mucho más que la incorporación de un conjunto de objetos. Supone trasladar obras del ámbito privado al patrimonio público y, de alguna manera, decidir qué parte de una cultura permanecerá disponible para las generaciones futuras....

Paola Fiterre: The Body, the Landscape, and the Art of Doing Nothing

There is something profoundly unsettling about a body doing nothing. Paola Fiterre, an artist who arrives at a residency presumably to create, decides instead to sleep. In Siesta, developed during her 2026 residency at Bienno Borgo degli Artisti 2.0 in Italy, Fiterre places her sleeping body in different public spaces throughout the medieval town: on a cobblestone street, beneath a white sheet with her head resting on a pillow, or in the river, where the current strikes and slowly shifts her body....
