José Bernal was born in Santa Clara, Cuba, in 1925. He
earned his Master of Fine Arts at Leopoldo Romañach School of the Plastic Arts
in 1961. During his early childhood, his parents noticed his passion for art
and introduced him to the works of European modernists. From that point onward
he was privately tutored in art and commenced an exploration of modernist
movements that influenced and inspired his work in the 1940s and 1950s. In
April of 1961, during the Bay of Pigs invasion, he was arrested for
"unpatriotic behavior." In 1962, he and his family were exiled to the
United States and settled in Chicago. DISCLAIMER...I BUY ESTATES, I am not an expert and my descriptions are based my best knowledge, experience, and research which by definition is never complete.
