Academy Cuban Posters

As part of an ongoing cultural exchange with Cuban film institutions, the Academy installs the new exhibition "Cuban Film Posters: From Havana to the World," displaying 125 graphically dynamic handmade silkscreen prints, all created by artists engaged by Cuba's film institute, Instituto Cubano de Arte e Industria Cinematográficos. All of these posters have been donated by ICAIC to the Academy's Margaret Herrick Library. Featured are posters for international films such as A Clockwork Orange, The Shining, Schindler's List, The Bicycle Thief, Z and Persona, and dozens of Cuban films including Strawberry and Chocolate, Cuba's only Foreign Language Film Award nominee to date.

The exhibit is available for viewing in the Grand Lobby Gallery at The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and is free and open to the public.  The Academy's gallery is open Tuesday through Friday (10 am - 5 pm) and Saturdays and Sundays (12 noon to 6 pm).
