Because Riveron’s main art education was not in Cuba, his work had a distinctly European flavor. Riveron did not show in Cuba his 1927 solo-exhibition at the Association of Painters and Sculptors in Havana.

Early in his career, Riveron was known for his naturalistic depictions of city life in France and Cuba, and he gained quite a bit of attention from them. In the 1930s, Riveron began to create collages, and also experimented with Cubism and abstract art. In fact, Riveron was one of the only painters of the Vanguard era to experiment with Abstract art early on. During this time, Riveron was also an illustrator for a number of newspapers based in Cuba and the New Yorker in the United States. Even more prestigious was Riveron’s work in Hollywood as an illustrator and storyboard developer for Walt Disney Pictures in 1938.
