    Do you know anything about art brought into the United States about 5 years ago. Two large paintings about 4 x 5 feet…history of the mail across the US ? iF YOU OR ONE OF YOUR ARTISTS CAN SEND PICTURES OF THESE PAINTINGS WE WILL HOLD THEM FOR YOU. I believe they could have been painted by the head of the Havana University Art Department at that time. Please let me know if you find anything about the paintings. I showed them in my gallery for two years…in McAllen Texas and now we have moved to Florida and the paintings are being held in McAllen by a fellow artist. Thanks Karen Norberg 941-623-3720

    Dear Karen,
    I just saw your post by chance. I can connect you with a very good friend of mine, cuban curator, who usually knows every Cuban artist and their work. If you have not found the creator of those paintings, feel free to contact me:
