El Profeto by Aliosky Garcia
Making Connections: Contemporary Cuban Printmakers is an exhibition that continues the Boston Printmakers tradition of sponsoring international exhibitions that celebrate the universal language of the fine art print and the collaborative spirit of printmakers. On view through November 22, 2009 at Laconia Gallery, this unique exhibition is curated by Candy Nartonis and Marjorie Javan. The exhibit includes etchings, lithographs, woodcuts, linocuts, digital prints, and books from 93 Cuban artists. Although a few of these artists now call the United States home, most currently live in Cuba. Making Connections includes work by Belkis Ayon, Yamilys Brito, Carlos Esteves, Manuel Mendive, Aliosky Garcia, Ibrahim Miranda, Sandra Ramos, and Boston artists Magdelena Campos-Pons and Francisco Mendez-Diaz.
Making Connections is part of a larger Boston area celebration of Cuban culture with the Fuller Craft Museum and the Massachusetts College of Art. Activities at all three locations include:
