Arte de La Borinqueña
A Collection of Fine Art Prints Curated by Edgardo Miranda Rodriguez
Casita Maria Center For Arts & Education is proud to present Arte de La Borinqueña curated by Edgardo Miranda Rodriguez, writer and creator of the critically acclaimed and best-selling graphic novel La Borinqueña.
Over 30 La Borinqueña fine art prints will be on view, each created by a different professional comic book and animation artist. Prints will be signed and numbered with printing generously donated by London-based gallery: Art You Grew Up With International. We invite avid collectors and newcomers to the scene to pre-game for Comic-Con and to purchase affordable limited prints at $200 a piece (tax, shipping and handling not included). Proceeds from this exhibition will go directly towards the Hurricane Irma recovery effort in Loíza, Puerto Rico being led by the non-profit organization La Corporación Se Integra (COPI) based in Loíza, Puerto Rico.
Miranda Rodriguez will also be exhibiting original artwork from La Borinqueña comic book, work from his recent exhibition at the Smithsonian, plus, videos from previous work with Casita Maria will be screened.
