FAMA invites you to our Members-Only Event: Enjoy refreshments in our sunny loggia and remarks by AMA Director Adriana Ospina. Then enjoy tours of two new exhibitions led by very special guests: “The Skin of Discomfort” with Chilean artist Paola Podesta and “The Invisible Prison: Imprisoned Artists of the Americas” with OAS Special Rapporteur for Freedom of Expression Pedro Vaca Villarreal.
The exhibition of colorful textile patchworks by Paola Podestá of Valparaíso, Chile, addresses issues such as feminism, fracking, the depletion of natural resources, immigration, and mental health. “The Invisible Prison: Imprisoned Artists of the Americas” brings together artists who create from Cuban prisons.
