In a special collaboration with the Museum of the National Center of Afro American Artists, the Planning Committee of Merengue Boston/Visual Rhythms held a private reception for the sponsors supporters of the Merengue exhibit. Co-Curator, Camilo Alvarez spoke with Gil Matos about this unique collection that has never before been seen in New England. Merengue as a musical genre permeates the Dominican culture. You can find it in the rhythm of it's people. The way they talk, they way the move, the way they welcome you with open arms. Merengue as music and merengue as art permeate your soul and make a lasting impression. Any which way you look at it, Merengue is a force to be reckoned with. The 40 plus pieces in this exhibit contain Merengue on paper, photographs, sculpture and popular graphics.
Nice Camilo, you are doing well. I am proud of you.
con carino,
