This exhibit, called “Under the Cuban Sun,” traces the tumultuous changes in Cuba over the last 70 years as seen through the lenses of an array of famous photographers from Cuba, but also as seen by visiting artists. Jesse A. Fernandez (1925-1986) is a Cuban artist who photographed many of the most important figures in Cuba in the 1950’s such as Fidel Castro .
The exhibit at the Throckmorton Gallery (145 East 57th Street in NYC) spans the years 1933-2007. It will consist of 42 vintage images and will open on June 16, 2016 and close on September 17, 2016.
