Description
Summary:"Connoting back and forth movement, the word vaivén is frequently used to describe the supposed ease with which Puerto Ricans travel between the United States and Puerto Rico. Not just physical but also psychological, this diasporic oscillation is inextricably linked to Puerto Rican heritage. A collaboration between the Katherine E. Nash Gallery at the University of Minnesota and Hidrante, San Juan, Vaivén: 21st-Century Art of Puerto Rico and Its Diaspora showcases the work of forty-three artists working in Puerto Rico and its United States diaspora. Highlighting their many artistic genres and styles, this bilingual volume uplifts the cultural and political dynamism and shifting interpretations of home and belonging that are inherent to Puerto Rico amid the perpetual transnational migrations of its people" --Back cover.
