Celebrate the work and legacy of photographer Frank Espada with his son & Poet Martin Espada alongside a multi-generational cohort of acclaimed Nuyorican photographers including Máximo Colón, David Gonzalez, and Erika P. Rodriguez!
Nuyorican photographers have long sought to document and preserve Puerto Rican history in the city and beyond. Their talents have gifted us some of the most inspiring, heartbreaking, and indelible images of the 21st century. Bringing together the visual and the poetic, this event honors the legacy of Frank Espada and the practice, vision, ethics, and futures of Nuyorican social documentary photography.
Afterwards, explore our exhibition, Diasporic Collage: Puerto Rico and the Survival of a People, on view in the CENTRO Gallery. Click here to learn more about the exhibition, dates, and hours.
