Caribbean Crossroads

El Museo del Barrio, New York

A three-day symposium


sintesi del comunicato stampa

The exhibition 'Caribbean: Crossroads of the World' is the culmination of nearly a decade of collaborative research and scholarship organized by El Museo del Barrio in conjunction with the Queens Museum of Art and The Studio Museum in Harlem. Presenting work at the three museums and accompanied by an ambitious range of programs and events, Caribbean: Crossroads offers an unprecedented opportunity to explore the diverse and impactful cultural history of the Caribbean basin and its diaspora. More than 550 works of art spanning four centuries illuminate changing aesthetics and ideologies and provoke meaningful conversations about topics ranging from commerce and cultural hybridity to politics and pop culture. The 3-day symposium: Caribbean Crossroads is the scholarly cornerstone of this exhibition, and brings together artists, writers, scholars, and community leaders to examine the arts and culture of the Caribbean, as well as the legacy of artists and activists who gave voice to the communities of the diaspora. Through panels, performances, and screenings at El Museo del Barrio and The Studio Museum in Harlem, scholars and practitioners explore the literary, visual, and performing arts; tradition of festival practices; and the legacies of key historical figures in the region.
