Michael Dweck is a visual artist known for his suggestive photographic style. The most important themes in his works are the concept of the beautiful and the aesthetics of beauty.
In 2003, he was the first living photographer to have a solo show at Sotheby's in New York. Michael Dweck is the author of a pictorial book – Habana Libre – which includes interviews with the sons of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. He describes the privileged class in modern Cuba. Starting Feb. 24, 2012, Dweck will be the first American artist to have a solo exhibition with Habana Libre at the Fototeca de Cuba Museum in Havana.
There were expected about 400 guests, but over 2000 attended the gala event. The exhibit’s large-scale photographs were printed on Kraft paper using a wax-based toner technique that Dweck developed specifically for this show.
