About this listen

I spoke with the Whitney Museum of American Art’s DeMartini Family Curator, Marcela Guerrero, about their recent exhibition “no existe un mundo poshuracán: Puerto Rican Art in the Wake of Hurricane Maria.” Coinciding with the 5th anniversary of Hurricane Maria, the multi-generational exhibition brings together artists from the island and the diaspora to explore the overlapping disasters compounded by Puerto Rico’s ongoing colonial conditions.
