Los Diez Pintores Concretos (The Ten Concrete Painters) was a mid 20th Century Cuban avant-garde visual art collective centered upon the strong emphasis on geometric abstraction at the core of Concretism. The group existed from 1957 until 1961 and its members were; Pedro de Oraá, Loló Soldevilla, Sandú Darié, Pedro Carmelo Álvarez López, Wifredo Arrcay Ochandarena, Salvador Zacarías Corratgé Ferrera, Luis Darío Martínez Pedro, José María Mijares, Rafael Soriano López, and José Ángel Rosabal Fajardo.  

Los Diez was the subject of the exhibition Concrete Cuba at the David Zwirner Gallery displayed at the gallery's London location in 2015 and their New York City venue in 2016.[1][2][3] An elaborate accompanying catalogue was produced and features an interview with Pedro De Oraá, then last surviving member of the group, by Lucas Zwirner.[4]
