Havana doesn’t wait for anyone; neither does the rest of Cuba. Crumbling façades in impossible color, salsa spilling out of doorways, vintage cars idling next to satellite dishes, a country that feels like five decades happening at once. It’s magnetic. It pulls you back. It pulled us back twenty times over ten years, between the three of us. 

Rudy Gonzalez, a Pulitzer Prize–winning photojournalist, brings the eye of someone who has spent a career finding truth in a single frame. Ayash Basu, an avid visual storyteller, brings a narrative instinct, building images into arcs that carry you past one moment into a fuller story. Nick Berard, a working commercial photographer, brings a director’s eye for light and composition, framing each scene to pull you in and hold you there. 

Forty photographs. One Island. Three points of view shown side by side, because Cuba isn’t one story, it’s many, happening at once. Come see all of them.
