Small gallery with wonderful artwork. Many small prints for reasonable (for foreigners) prices. Several of her large sculptures are outside in the Plaza Del Carmen.
Very cool works of art but a little expensive for small artworks. Very interesting to see how they make the items but I didn't buy anything as they were a little bit too much in my opinion. Still worth a look though if you're in the area.

(Translated by Google) I visited Martha Jiménez Pérez's atelier during my second trip to Cuba, in 2017 and it was love at first sight for all her works, I bought two, the very famous "Las Chismosas" (of these I bought three , one for me and two more for each of my sisters) and then I purchased the Bano de la Papaya. If you go to Camaguey look for this atelier. it is a must see, it is located in Plaza del Carmen in Camaguey.

Ho visitato l'atelier di Martha Jiménez Pérez durante il mio secondo viaggio a Cuba, nel 2017 ed è stato amore a prima vista per tutte le sue opere, ne ho comprate due, le celeberrime "Las Chismosas" (di queste ne ho prese tre, una per me e altre due per ognuna delle mie sorelle) e poi ho acquistato il Bano de la Papaya. Se andate a Camaguey cercate questo atelier. è assolutamente da vedere, si trova a Plaza del Carmen a Camaguey.
