WITHOUT MASKS
THE VON CHRISTIERSON COLLECTIONThe von Christierson Collection consists of more than 450 works by contemporary Cuban artists from 1960 to the present day, although most artworks were made in the last decade of the 1990s and the 21st century. This collection seeks to fulfill the intellectual, moral and political obligation to provoke reflection on the fabric of Cuban culture and society. In so doing, it “unmasks” important truths which we hope will contribute to a better understanding of the people of this unique island who remain so deeply connected to Africa.

The Supper (1991), by Belki Ayón, currently a part of Whose Tradition? at Tate Liverpool
Featured
Exhibition at Tate LiverpoolThe Tate Liverpool's exhibition Whose Tradition? explores artistic traditions and the give-and-take of ideas between European and the African diaspora.
"Different world cultures have always been a source of inspiration for many artists throughout history. Although this has led to important artistic developments, it is a complex story that has rarely been carried out on equal terms."
While the exhibit is currently closed to the public, it can be viewed online HERE.
