“Cuba Is”

At the Annenberg Space for Photography, a photo exhibition highlighting the unique culture of the island nation of Cuba entitled “Cuba Is” is currently on display. A few of the photographers are local to the nation, where others are connected to Cuba through other ways but are not local to the nation.

Tria Giovan is a New York based photographer who has been known for documenting people, places, and things in a visually interesting way. In 1990, she began a six year project that had her in Cuba for 12 month-long trips over that time period. Many of these pictures capture the culture of Cuba during a time of political transition due to the breakdown of the Soviet Union and the Eastern Bloc. During this period, Cuba was trying to survive economically but the culture of the people still thrived and that is shown through the series done by Giovan. I chose the below picture because it stood out as something seemingly normal. Just a girl and her horse. How many times have we, as Americans, seen pictures of cowboys and their horses depicting the “old west?”

At the Beach

Leysis Quesada Vera is a Cuban born photographer who is known for photographing her town and the people around her life. In her statement, she states that she usually identifies with women and their lives and struggles. In her early work, she focused on the campesinos (people from the countryside) in Cuba. She was fascinated by their way of life and how they went about their lives. The photo I have chosen came from that time period. This image felt like it came off the wall to me which is why I chose it. This photo again seems like just something normal and American. But it is also very clearly Cuban culture.
