Orlando Quevedo

About the Artist

Orlando Quevedo is a Cuban-born artist whose work combines academic training with an imaginative style often described as magical realism. Born in Holguín in 1970, he studied at respected Cuban art schools and completed his formal training at the Instituto Superior de Arte in Havana in 1993. His work frequently brings together technical control, art-historical references, and dreamlike narrative elements.

Quevedo’s paintings tend to appeal to collectors who want more than surface beauty. His compositions often reward close looking, with symbolism, atmosphere, and carefully structured figuration that make the work feel intellectually rich as well as visually engaging. That combination gives him strong appeal among buyers drawn to imaginative realism and painterly storytelling.

Kerja Gallery’s searchable results reference “Lady in Red” under Orlando Quevedo, indicating the kind of figurative, mood-driven work that fits naturally within his larger body of art. His presence adds a more poetic and narrative-driven dimension to the collection.
