An important test for Photo Project Pro, which has scheduled an exhibition in La Habana entitled Miradas Compartidas. This year's is more unique than rare, as it will take place in conjunction with the celebrations for the 500th anniversary of the founding of the city.
From November 8 to December 2, the event will be hosted in the halls of the historic Centro Hispanoamericano de Cultura, one of the most accredited institutional spaces that offers the public outstanding photographic exhibitions.
For the first time, Italian and Cuban artists will be involved together, 15 from each nation, and their works will be exhibited in what represents one of the most prestigious events organised abroad by the Photo Project Pro, as it will involve the most important Cuban institutions.
The exhibition will be curated by photographers Mino Di Vita (Italy) and Alain Cabrera (Cuba) and will be included in the calendar of the "Cuban Photographic November" organised by the La Habana Photo Library, as well as in the "Semana of Italian Culture in Cuba" organised by the Italian Embassy in Havana.
