ATLAS OF HUMANITY | MILAN

It was an honor to be selected to represent Cuba in the Milan exhibit for Atlas of Humanity. And an even bigger honor to be featured in the Atlas of Humanity book. 

Atlas of Humanity exhibited in Milan, Italy from October 7-30, 2022. The exhibition – curated by Martin Vegas – it’s now at its 8th edition and will be attended by 120 international photographers who showcase the richness and diversity of the world’s ethnic cultures that form the great mosaic of humanity. The portraits and the daily moments captured by these established authors or curious amateurs provide a glimpse into the vanishing cultures of people who are striving to hold onto their heritage in a rapidly-changing world.

Atlas of Humanity in Milan came after Paris, New York, Dubai, Tunis, Birmingham, and Cologne. How amazing to bring this international project to Milan, one of the most vital destinations for art lovers. Internationally famous for being one of the world’s capitals of design and fashion, in the last years, Milan has become a reference point also for the new trends in visual arts.

Next up… Atlas of Humanity New York, where Vanishing Cuba will be showcased with a special exhibit. 

VANISHING CUBA CHRONICLES – PRINTING IN ITALY

VANISHING CUBA CHRONICLES – PRINTING IN ITALY

On September 28, 2021, I departed New York for Milan, Italy, to oversee the printing and production of my long-awaited Vanishing Cuba book. I was headed to my printer, Longo AG, in Bolzano, Italy. My man at Longo, Giuseppe, picked me up at the airport, and we began our four-hour journey across Northern Italy. Giuseppe had been working with me for two years on this project, and he knew exactly what I was looking to achieve. After multiple espressos stops along the Autostrade, we arrived at Longo in the late afternoon. The espresso stops were a good indication of what was to come. Non-stop espresso, all day, every day, for the next two weeks!
