Activity with Dominican Artist Freddy Rodriguez

On April 7, 2012, famed Dominican painter Freddy Rodriguez visited Chicago and spoke on how his identity as a Latino an immigrant informed his development as a visual artist from his early works in geometric abstraction, installation art, symbolism, and paintings on Pre-Columbian identity to his winning design of the Flight 587 Memorial competition.

This was a joint event with the University of Illinois at Chicago’s Latino Cultural Center, the Department of Hispanic and Italian Studies, and the Puerto Rican Arts Alliance.
