SEE: URBAN MARTYRS AND LATTER-DAY SANTOS

Urban Martyrs and Latter-Day Santos at El Museo del Barrio, 1230 Fifth Avenue at 105th Street.  Urban Martyrs and Latter-Day Santos  is the first museum survey of the Nuyorican artist Rodríguez Calero and the second in a series of five women-artist retrospectives in El Museo’s current five-year plan. Rodríguez Calero forges her powerful and unique style from the richly varied traditions of her own background. Born in Puerto Rico and raised mainly in New York City, she received her artistic education at San Juan’s prestigious Escuela de Artes Plásticas and the famed Art Students League of New York. After living and studying abroad, in both France and Spain, she returned to New York where she became a participating artist in the historic Taller Boricua.  www.ElMuseo.org
