Linda Hirsch: Cuba - Threads of Hope & Renewal January 28, 2010

This exhibition of photography by Linda Hirsch beautifully documents unique Jewish communities in Cuba. Over the course of several trips to the island, Hirsch immersed herself into the lives and homes of Cuba's Jews, revealing rich traditions, cultural affectations and humble settings with stunning clarity and sincerity. Hirsch's portrait of Cuba offers viewers the opportunity to reflect on their own ethnic heritage through images that appear both foreign and familiar.
