There are no permanent friends, no permanent enemies, some just between the 'demand'. So between man and man, between country and country also so. After half a century later, American President Obama recently suddenly announced that it would with the previous' nemesis neighbor 'Cuba full restoration of diplomatic relations, all occupied the most international journal headline. Even if the relevant agreement at present has not yet been made public, domestic art connoisseurs will pronouncements, Cuban art or it will become a new hot spot in the global art market, very collection and investment value. President Obama Carter, a American land waterside pavilion, enjoy the advantage of the southernmost tip of Miami art collectors Howard Farber predicted that more and more American art lovers will come in great numbers, the Cuban art market will also usher in a new upsurge of round of development. "And most art collectors, and I also believe that the Cuban art very mysterious and unusual fine. Now the relationship between the two countries are moving in the right direction, a new genre of art and the market are waving to us." Farber told the U.S. media "Wall Street daily" interview.

Compared with Europe and Latin American art collectors, American art collectors now enjoy the advantages of geographical and social environment advantageous. What is the right way? New York art dealers, gallery owner Sean Kelly (Sean Kelly) perhaps the most right to speak -- which created Kelly gallery is now Cuba agency known artistic combination of Los Carpinteros.
