Jose Ney Milá Espinosa
Solo Photography Exhibition
The “Land Land Land” exhibition offers a captivating collection of photographs by José Ney Milà Espinosa, a Cuban-born artist exploring rich spiritual and cultural heritage of the “Yoruba” (Afro-Cuban Santeria) and “Kimbiza, Santo Cristo del Buen Viaje,” a lesser-known Afro-Cuban spiritual practice. Through powerful imagery, the artist captures the vibrant rituals, sacred symbols, and deep rooted traditions that bridge the African diaspora in Cuba. The photographs not only highlight the ceremonial aspects of these faiths, but also convey the profound connection between the natural and spiritual worlds that these belief systems embrace. This exhibition offers a visual narrative that honors the ongoing influence of Afro-Cuban spirituality in contemporary culture.

Por: La redacción
Seleccionar —nos decía Duchamp— es un acto creativo. A menudo el núcleo de la obra ya existe; está allí en silencio, en reposo, ignorado. El artista, más que construir descubre, visibiliza, aquello que pasamos por alto. Esto es lo que ocurre en la serie fotográfica Intervenciones Casuales de José Ney Milá Espinosa (1959)...

El trabajo de José Ney se inscribe en una de las aventuras más fascinantes de la fotografía
documental cubana de los noventa: la búsqueda de nuevos imaginarios capaces de sostener
una visión heterogénea de la realidad.

Pionero 1.21
La expresión ′′ pionero ′′ es tan completa y en principio promete grandes cosas, apunta a todo aquello que provoca emociones y pasa a la historia para siempre.
El espíritu pionero crea escándalos, irrita y asusta. Los pioneros suelen encontrarse con la incomprensión y el rechazo, precisamente porque no quiere entender la lógica general. No es de extrañar, porque siempre están un paso adelante de la sociedad y la vida estandarizada.
