Carmen Herrera
About Carmen Herrera
Carmen Herrera (1915–2022) was a Cuban-born American artist known for precise geometric abstraction. Born in Havana, she studied art and architecture before moving to New York in 1939. During her years in Paris, from 1948 to 1953, she developed a visual language of sharply defined forms and carefully balanced colour. Her paintings explore the relationship between shape, surface and surrounding space, often using only two or three colours. Working across painting and sculpture, Herrera sustained this focused practice for decades before receiving wider institutional recognition late in life.
