Cuba is a movement of great hardship and joyous celebration. For 50 years, Cuba\u2019s reality has been dominated by a revolutionary dream of creating a more just society and the crippling economic isolation that has resulted from US policies towards Cuba.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The focus of this project, however, is not the political. My purpose is not to judge the revolutionary experiment.<br \/>\nBut in Cuba, this political reality permeates everything. It is the canvas for every image. And yet, these pictures reflect the fierce independence and enduring exuberance of the Cuban people, and the music and rhythm of the island nation that continues to define the Cuban experience above all else. It\u2019s what keeps drawing me back. It is in this spirit that I share these images with you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>July 28 &#8211; September 3, 2011<\/strong><br \/> <br \/>\nOpening and book launch: July 28,  5\u20139 p.m.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Photographic Narrative of Cuba<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>TORONTO IMAGE WORKS GALLERY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>    But in Cuba, this political reality permeates everything.
