Petersburg Area Art League will host an opening reception for Vistazos, an exhibition featuring the New Cuban Art Collective, on Friday, Nov. 13, from 5 to 8 p.m.

The exhibition introduces visitors to contemporary Cuban art through works exploring cultural identity, symbolism and imagination. Featured artists include Erikc Guerra, who is based in Trinidad, Cuba.

According to PAAL, the exhibition aims to connect Cuban artists with broader audiences and create opportunities for economic support through the collection of their work. Its exploration of Afro-Cuban surrealism considers the connections among African influences, cultural expression and contemporary artistic practice.

The title Vistazos translates to “glimpses” or “glances,” reflecting the different perspectives offered throughout the exhibition.
