El Colectivo de Artistas Visuales Domínico-Americanos (CAVDA) presenta su décimo segundo panel Hablemos de Arte, es vez con el tema “Técnica del grabado y diseño gráfico”.

Dicho panel tendrá lugar el sábado 19 de Febrero de 2011, a las 5:30 p.m. en el local de Río Gallery II, ubicada en el 583 Riverside Drive, esquina 135th Street.

Los panelistas serán los artistas visuales Alex Guerrero, Pepe Coronado, Luanda Lozano y Moses Ros-Suárez, quienes tienen una afianzada formación académica y amplia experiencia en el mundo de las artes visuales.

2nd Bronx Latin American Art Biennial, 2010 PRESENT “RECONSTRUCTION ELSE WHERE”,
Group Exhibition. November 6 to November 30 2010 Artist’s Reception November 6,
2010 Time: 5:30 pm –9:00 pm. Location: BRONX ART SPACE 305 East 140th Street,
Bronx NY, 10454 Tel.: 347 920 6579   www.bronxartspace.com “Reconstruction
Elsewhere” deals with parallel realities in artists work either in its formal or
conceptual qualities. A parallel reality is a state that we are continually in
and that we are regularly experiencing. In each year, day or hour we encounter a
barrage of contradicting and colliding attitudes, thoughts, sensations, desires,
emotions and dreams.  This condition is even more heightened for artists as they
experience parallel realities as immigrants and as artists in the
conceptualization and in the creation of their work, exploring the many
subtleties, shapes of survival and transformation. Artists Alain Gutierrez,
