Through A Stranger’s Eyes

September 25, 2024–December 21, 2024

---

An extension of Bridges Not Walls, an arts and culture exchange program, Through A Stranger’s Eyes brings together two Cuban and two American artists who met in Havana, Cuba, in 2017. The exhibition includes photographs and narrative components of the Cubans’ journey to the United States and the Americans’ impression of Havana after dozens of trips and thousands of photographs taken during their visits. From the perspective of the Americans, M. Katherine Hurley and Jens Rosenkrantz Jr., Cuba is a time capsule of the 1950s with old cars, crumbling buildings, empty shelves, and long lines. Having relocated to the United States, Cuban artists Evelyn Sosa and Yudith Vargas Riveron now create works that capture a new world of economic safety amidst a challenging and frenetic environment.

Artists: M. Katherine Hurley, Yudith Vargas Riveron, Jens Rosenkrantz Jr., Evelyn Sosa
