The Bellas Artes' 'Colecci贸n de Arte Cubano' houses purely Cuban art. Works are displayed in chronological order, starting on the 3rd floor, and are surprisingly varied. Artists to look out for include Guillermo Collazo, considered to be the first truly great Cuban artist; Rafael Blanco, with his cartoon-like paintings and sketches; Ra煤l Mart铆nez, a master of 1960s Cuban pop art; and the Picasso-like Wifredo Lam.
