“My experience as the first artist invited from the US in Cuba’s
3rd Havana Biennial”
Samia Halaby, a Palestinian artist now living in NY, discusses her
experience in Cuba, a state where the working class took power. She
examines differences between the bourgeoisie's Venice Biennale of
1988 and the Havana Biennial of 1989. The presentation also provides
background on abstraction and its sources in revolution, and
contrasts it with the idealism behind current, very retrograde,
capitalist painting.
