Exhibition
The Alper Initiative for 澳门皇冠体育 Art celebrates ten artists who left Latin America for many different reasons over the last sixty years-primarily for safety, freedom, and opportunity-and made their homes, and their artistic careers and contributions, in the 澳门皇冠体育 region. They include Joan Belmar and Juan Downey from Chile, Carolina Mayorga from Colombia, Ric Garcia, F. Lennox Campello, and Jose Ygnacio Bermudez from Cuba, Muriel Hasbun from El Salvador, Frida Larios from El Salvador/Honduras, Irene Clouthier from Mexico, and Na煤l Ojeda from Uruguay. They brought with them artistic traditions that took root and bore fruit here in the United States.
