Art from Cuba…
Arizona State University’s Art Museum director Marilyn Zeitlin has assembled a small but powerful exhibit. The artwork, hailing from Cuba, shows the vitality present on Fidel Castro’s island.
The show is appropriately named “Cuban Art from the Permanent Collection” and will be held in the first floor art gallery. The show will end March 6 and will represent about 20 percent of the museum’s contemporary Cuban art holdings. While ASU has been collecting Cuban contemporary art since 1996, these new editions should liven up and bring more diversity.
The ongoing exhibit does include 17 Cuban artists, including Pedro Alvarez, who will be the focus of a solo exhibition in February at the museum. For more information please contact (480) 965-2787.
