Cuban Art Space

Welcome to the Cuban Art Space

Cuban art is very little known in the United States, especially that made by artists who are still living and working in Cuba. Our intention is to promote the work of Cuban artists.
Given the decades-long break in relations between Cuba and the United States, this is not easy. But we start with a certain advantage: the Center for Cuban Studies has been working on cultural exchange programs for many years.
In 1991, the Center spearheaded a successful lawsuit against the U.S. Treasury Department, which made the importation and sale of original art from Cuba legal. Over the years the Center has accumulated a collection of several thousand art works, posters and photographs by Cuban artists, as well as handmade books.
In the pages of this web site, you'll be treated to a sampling of our collection. We have pages for the current exhibit in the Art Space gallery, art and poster exhibits for rent, artifacts and art for sale, Center organized art and architecture focused research trips to Cuba.

The Center For Cuban Studies is celebrating 2008 with our gorgeous
El Grupo Bayate 2008 Calendar!

WE HAVE JUST MOVED

We have just moved and are working on a new website!

From March 4 to March 29, at our new space, 231 West 29th Street, #401, New York NY 10001, between 7th and 8th Avenues, we'll have a Center equivalent of a summer GARAGE SALE.

If you are not in New York City, you can buy many of the items online. In our currently empty gallery space, we'll put out hundreds of wonderful items at a huge discount: tees and totes, crafts, jewelry, books and Cuban magazines, art catalogs, Cuban music , small artowrks, posters and prints -- and every few days we'll put out more merchandise, to encourage you to return to the sale more than once. We want you to leave with something!

If you can't make it, and don't find anything you LOVE, then we hope you'll contribute to our Building Fund so that we can re-open with our regular programs as soon as possible.
