Cuba Now
October 1 - November 5, 2016

STATEMENT

The claustrophobic and rather sinister atmosphere which unsettled me on my first visit to Cuba two years ago seemed mitigated by outward and visible signs of change--new restaurants, businesses, hotels and, for the first time, Wi-Fi hotspots on the streets of Havana. This show does not reflect any of this! Rather they are photographs of the place which so totally seduced me two years ago: Cuba, deeply and soulfully beautiful, filled with both melancholy and irrepressible delight.
