The Spaces Between : Contemporary Art from HavanaTools Andersson, Cecilia; Eligio, Antonio; Wallace, Keith. The Spaces Between : Contemporary Art from Havana. London, England: Black Dog Publishing, 2014.
Abstract (English)"This catalogue is an exposition of one of the most important exhibitions of contemporary Cuban art outside of the Caribbean. It explores the issues of money, identity and bureaucracy in the works of renowned artists such as Juan Carlos Alom, Celia y Junior and Eduardo Ponjuan and encompasses much of the richness of the Havanan art scene. As opined by the book's title, The Spaces Between: Contemporary Art from Havana, this is a publication focused toward the shared spaces and communal sensibilities of a city, rather than an attempt to survey the entire contemporary output of this anomalous nation. In essence, the study is a concentrated one of modern Havana, taking note of those artistic, cultural, socio-economic and anthropological influences on its art scene without the intent of becoming pedagogic in the process." -- Publisher's website.
