Three Latina Artists / Tres Artistas Latinas

Calero Lazarus

February 2 – March 27
Panel Discussion: Wednesday March 11, 2009 2pm
Closing Reception: Sunday, March 22, 2009 3 – 5PM.

Elia Alba, Rodriguez Calero, Juana Valdes are three Latina artists whose multimedia artworks are meditations on being women artists with Spanish-speaking Caribbean heritage. “By birth or heritage their roots are in the Spanish-speaking Caribbean” writes Anreus. “Within its diversity the Spanish-speaking Caribbean shares a similar colonial history, a hybrid spirituality and a multi-racial identity. All of these issues continue to be potent in the lives and culture(s) of Latinos in the United States.” Curated by Alejandro Anreus. Catalog available.
