Demetrio Alfonso’s artwork is bold, passionate and provocative. His painting is abstract, combining organic elements and found objects. As a young man, he and his family immigrated to Cuba from his native Canary Islands, Spain. In Cuba, he studied painting for seven years at the acclaimed San Alejandro Art School in Havana. In pursuit of new dreams, Demetrio and his family left Cuba in 1965 to come to the United States. Shortly after his arrival, he continued six more years of study at the School of Visual Arts and the Art Students League in New York City. He established his studio in Manhattan where, for the last 35 years, he has been restoring valuable paintings for prestigious galleries and private clients throughout the country. His vast knowledge and expertise in 18th through 20th century American painting make him one of the top names in the art restoration.
