‘Printing Solidarity: Tricontinental Graphics from Cuba’ on Display at Zuccaire Gallery

Alfrédo Rostgaard, [Che], 1969. From the Carlos Vega Collection, Interference Archive.

Printing Solidarity: Tricontinental Graphics from Cuba is on view at the Zuccaire Gallery in Staller Center from December 1 through February 26. It is an exhibition of global printed matter published in the 1960s-70s by the Organization of Solidarity with the Peoples of Africa, Asia, and Latin America (OSPAAAL), a cultural organization of artists and designers founded in 1966 in Havana. Presenting more than 50 archival posters and magazines with strikingly colorful and geometric designs, Printing Solidarity offers a glimpse into the revolutionary aesthetics and agenda of this print collective.
Printing Solidarity is curated by Stony Brook University art history PhD students Elise Armani, Amy Kahng, Daniel Menzo and Sarah Myers, under the guidance of Assistant Professor Sohl Lee.
Opening events will be held on Wednesday, December 1, including a guest lecture by graphic designer Scott Starrett at 3 pm, followed by refreshments at 4 pm and then a panel discussion with the curators at 4:30 pm.
The gallery is open Monday through Friday from 12 pm to 4 pm and evenings of Staller Center performances.
