Printmaking
Lorenzo Homar (1913, 2004) was a Puerto Rican printmaker and graphic designer whose bold woodcuts and silkscreens became central to postwar Caribbean modernism. Working primarily in black and white, his compositions layered geometric abstraction with figural and symbolic imagery rooted in Puerto Rican cultural identity and labor history. Homar's graphic work extended to poster design and book illustration, establishing him as a formative figure in twentieth-century Caribbean art and design. His formal vocabulary combined European modernist reduction with a distinctly local visual language.
