Allison Hill Artists Quotations

Very few artists have studios with a gallery and sign outside. Others are simply working out of their apartment or their house. Through contacts, they start to show in Cuba. If they are lucky, they will be picked up by galleries in the United States or Europe.

It's an interesting situation. Because a lot of people have time and opportunity, you get more art. Here, artists don't worry so much about being financially viable, so they try everything. They get to be more experimental.

Rumors travel fast in Cuba. Artists know I'm there before I get there. It's not hard to find the artists but it is hard to see everything.
