ALEX HARRIS : "THE IDEA OF CUBA" - Harris's remarkable journey into contemporary Cuba is both a powerful and mysterious evocation of life on the island and an original meditation on the nature of documentary photography. Harris made three trips to Cuba to photograph a nation coming to grips with the economic and social devastation that followed the collapse of the socialist bloc in 1989, a nation beginning to imagine a future without Fidel Castro. The Idea of Cuba is presented in cooperation with the Center for Documentary Studies at Duke University and made possible by the support of the Fundacion Armistad, New York. Continuing through May 8.
