Sensei Exchange, an exhibition series on the themes of Memory and Identity, presents part 008:
Juana Valdes
In The Fold
Juana Valdes’ artwork is a multi-disciplinary practice that combines the process of printmaking, photography, sculpture and ceramic. It integrates the social-political discourse within the art object: to analyze relationships between contemporary and historical imagery, their connection to the social, political, and economical dominance of the cultures that produce them, and their impact on cultural memory. She addresses this from a Caribbean diasporic immigrant’s perspective and places it within the current post-racial American politics.

| Cepp Selgas / Tresjuanes XI / oil on canvas / 80s Mariel, Revista de Literatura y Arte was published quarterly in Spanish in New York City between April 1983 and April 1985 by a group of young Cuban writers and artists who had arrived in the United States in 1980 during the Mariel boatlift, an exodus of refugees from the port of Mariel in Cuba. In editing Mariel, this group wanted to showcase their own work and the work of other Cubans who had taken part in the exodus, as well as the literary and artistic achievements of other authors from Cuba, both from the 1980s and from earlier decades of the twentieth century. Other well-known Latin American authors were also included in the pages ofMariel. A total of eight issues were published. They were printed in tabloid format on newsprint, the only paper they could afford. Surviving copies are fragile, hard to find and risk being damaged when physically handled. That is why this website has been created, both to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the release of Mariel’s first issue and to give readers access to digital copies of the full eight issues in PDF format.

| “La esquina de mi memoria”, primorosamente presentado por la casa editorial Asopazco es una lectura obligada para los amantes de la libertad, para todo ser humano que resiste las garras del totalitarismo: para todos los demócratas. Para los que están en el trance comunista viene a ser la píldora “Realidad” que los lleve al camino de la rehabilitación. Para unos y otros es una lectura necesaria. Rafael Román Martel |
