Carlos Luna: Beyond The Surface

Reading Public Museum, Reading, PA

Open now until September 10, 2023

One of the most dynamic voices in contemporary Latin-American art today, Carlos Luna (American, b. in Cuba, 1969) will be the feature of a monographic exhibition at the Reading Public Museum this summer. The exhibition will feature nearly 30 works that range from the late 1990s through his most recent productions. During the past thirty years, the artist has formulated a unique visual language — a density of hybrid images — that consists of a magical blend of national identity, Caribbean folklore, Afro-Cuban traditions, visual and verbal puns, and personal familial memories.
