Join us at DISJECTA for Julia's lecture and slide show about Cuban Contemporary Art in the Cultural Diaspora, a discussion of the ways in which Cuban cultural identity and migration influence and are evidenced in the art works and practices of Cuban artists both living in and outside of Cuba. Cuba has a long and rich visual art practice tradition. Contemporary Cuban artists work in a wide range of mediums and although they have limited exposure in the US (due to the embargo in effect since 1962), the Cuban contemporary art scene is internationally recognized for its intellectual depth and mastery of craft. |
