A Vision of Reynaldo GuAracibo Rodriguez

An amazing traveling exhibition by Puerto Rican artist Reynaldo Rodriguez. This exhibition explores the West African, the Caribbean and the Puerto Rican history of the Bomba tradition in Chicago and others part of the United States, also each mural have this colorful exhibition features the art of the Artist Reynaldo "GuAracibo" Rodriguez accompanied by the sounds and rhythm of Afro-Caribbean drums.


The exhibition will bring work from Reynaldo Rodriguez, in which he uses portraits from  "Bomberos" in his community to represent various aspects of our Bomba music (drumming, singing, Cua, Maraca, etc). An important element of the exhibit will be the connection with Bomberos from Puerto Rico and the United States.
