As a talented student, he developed the formal skills that he has been using during the course of his long and prolific career. A very well known drawing performed in these early years, somehow defined him: A perfectionist academic portrait, with an elongated style, portraying an Amerindian of the primitive tribes of the United States of America. In the portrait, the protagonist, an Indian figure riding a horse while shooting a gun is aiming backwards, as if turning his back towards the viewer (us).When the art teacher asked Bedia why he drew the Indian in such a manner, his response defined his rebellious dissident ideology. And he paraphrased: \"Because I'm on his side, the enemy is on the other side, so you can totally trust me.\"After San Alejandro, he graduated with honors from the ISA, Instituto Superior de Arte de la Habana, CubaHe was a pioneer of the radical transformation of Cuban Art that inaugurated the Exhibition Volumen 1, which Bedia was integral part of. His passion for the primal Amerindians complemented his anthropological studies on Afro-Transatlantic cultures, studying in depth the faith, believes and religion of the \"La Regla Kongo\" (in which he was initiated in 1983), the \" Regla de Ocha\", and the Leopard Society of Abakuas, among many others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 36\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.09 x 11 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 09, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47221593440505,"sku":"9781673684599","price":20.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/Smw0eCsyUFFNeVR1RUxleU9rempIdz09.webp?v=1768195287","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/dialogos-misticos-jose-bedia-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
