Abstract

Recorded in Havana in June 2009, this conversation addresses a series of works by the Cuban artist Manuel Pina. Moving between Pina's recent video work, his earlier photographic practices and the tradition of photojournalism in Cuba, we investigate the continued and dynamic intersection between documentary work and revolutionary politics. This conversation reminds us that debates about the ‘end of Communism’ and the rise of the global art market must also contend with art production still confronting the realities of a socialist revolution.
