The first collective exhibition of Cubanocanadian artists was held in Trididad, Cuba on Dec. 28th 2012 at the Casa del Joven Creador, under the title ADICIONES / ADDICCIONES.  Each member of the  five artist cooperative that comprises the core of Cubanocanadian contributed a few pieces to the show, which included new works in oils, acrylics and pastel on canvas and paper, sculptures of recycled street objects, and a presentation of video art to open the show.  There was also a tattoo artist creating butterfly tattoos for those brave enough to step up for a permanent souvenir of the evening.

We hope that this is the first of many collective exhibitions for the group, and plans have begun to bring a group exhibition to Canada, with a possible exchange with a group of Canadian artists presenting their work in Cuba.

Here is a video of the setup for the show featuring all of the artists involved:
