Cuban Art, Ajiaco: Stirrings of the Cuban Soul

The exhibition focuses on that which serves as a source for all of Latin American art – its spirituality. The objects engage the visitor as they view, participate in, watch and listen to the roots of Cuban culture from its sources in Africa, Asia, Spain, China, and indigenous culture. Cuban art today embraces and visualizes the very nature of the Cuban soul.
