Voces y Visiones: Gran Caribe
Dec 20, 2011 - Dec 09, 2012
Drawn from El Museo del Barrio鈥檚 wide-ranging permanent collection, this exhibition features works that explore the vast diversity and complexity of the Caribbean basin and contribute a dialogue to the exhibition, Caribbean: Crossroads of the World (June 12, 2012-January 8, 2013). In collaboration with Studio Museum in Harlem and Queens Museum of Art, El Museo del Barrio will present its ground-breaking Caribbean exhibition, which explores the art, culture and history of the region from the time of the Haitian Revolution (c. 1791) to the present. This installation of permanent collection objects takes a narrative approach to some of the themes developed in the larger exhibition, exploring the connections between personal experiences and visual expressions. These artworks are a reflection of the human condition: movement from one place to another, creating epic narratives from personal stories, sharing one鈥檚 love for a lost homeland. As the title implies, the islands, the coastlines and the waters that unite them are all part of this study.
