Summary

"Cuban-American Art in Miami analyzes the impact of Cuban exiles on Miami's cultural explosion, from 1959 to the present day. It is the first book to create a historical record of the circumstances, artists, venues and people who made Miami the important artistic centre that it is today, and a key place for artistic exchange between the U.S., Latin America, the Caribbean and Western Europe." "Based on primary-source information, such as oral interviews, exhibition catalogs and reviews, and featuring 90 color illustrations of some of the key works, Cuban-American Art in Miami is essential reading for collectors, dealers, curators, and all those with an interest in Latin-American culture."--Jacket.
