A DROP OF SWEAT FOR EVERY SIGH – EXHIBITION ON THE CONCEPT OF CONFLICT
Art Code Space, gallery focused on Cuban artists, presents a collective exhibition curated by Yudinela Ortega that delves in universalityat the same time it highlights each of the artists’ individual creation.
The exhibition tries to build a map from different voices that shows how the artists build their universes and deal with conflict; The curator proposes axioms that invite the analysis of different hues and frictions within artistic professions. This exhibition is outlined by how and where these occur, and how obstacles present themselves in a defining and challenging way to women artists.
