Abstract

Approaching its 50th anniversary and after a year closed for renovations, El Museo del Barrio reopens with a Liliana Porter retrospective and a photo exhibit. In this article published by El Diario New York, Jesús García reports how the phrase that empowered the feminist movement in the 1960s and '70s, "the personal is political," takes on new meaning during the reopening of El Museo del Barrio, where a cluster of artists explore public spaces turned private and the way they empower Hispanics in the United States. ; El Museo del Barrio, ubicado en una de las zonas emblemáticas para los hispanos del Alto Manhattan o El Barrio- reabre, después de una extensa renovación con una exhibición colectiva de fotografías y hace una retrospectiva de la obra de Liliana Porter.
