Transcultural Pilgrim: Three Decades of Work by José Bedia - until September 2, 2012

The exhibition, consisting of 32 works including works on paper and canvas and two large-scale installations, explores Bedia’s ancestral genealogy (Cuba) and his constructed genealogy in the “other” Americas—the indigenous communities where this transcultural pilgrim has found so much deeply personal material for his spiritual and artistic practices. His trips to indigenous North, Middle and South American communities and to Africa can be called “pilgrimages,” for they are religious as well as artistic forays. Bedia’s personal border crossings (social, racial, and religious) reflect his exploration of historical and contemporary encounters between cultures and countries, which he personalizes in his artistic production.
