Unbroken Ties: Dialogues in Cuban Art
Hodge Gallery
The exhibition Unbroken Ties: Dialogues in Cuban Art, organized by the Museum of Art | Fort Lauderdale, Nova Southeastern University is culled from their collection of contemporary Cuban art assembled by curator Jorge Santis. The exhibition reveals the existence of an acutely Cuban point of view, based on shared concerns and is illustrated by a series of comparisons and contrasts between individual works of art stressing their direct or indirect thematic linkage. The selected works represent three distinct groups of Cuban-born artists: men and women who were born on the island, but developed professionally abroad, artists who reached artistic maturity and later immigrated to the United States, and a younger group of artists who not only studied in their homeland but still reside there. The visual dialogues are established by 56 works of art by 41 different artists. Unbroken Ties is a multimedia exhibition consisting of paintings, sculptures, photographs, graphic works, videos and installations. The exhibition is comprised of both renowned artists and emerging artists including Jose Bedia, Abelardo Morrell, María Magdalena Campos-Pons, Tony Mendoza, Tomás Sánchez, Raúl Cordero, Kattia García Fayat and Miguel Florido.
Structurally, the exhibition is divided into three sections, each concerning a different aspect of Cuban culture. The first consists of works that pertain to Cuba, before and after Castro and the fight for survival. The second, the treacherous journey to the United States and the risks Cuban immigrants take to get a "fresh start." The last group examines what happens once the immigrants reach the United States and the new set of challenges and frustrations that await them there.
