Edra Soto: At the Whitney, Puerto Rican Artists Reflect on the Tragedy and Transformation of Hurricane Maria

The first major survey of contemporary Puerto Rican art in nearly half a century, “no existe un mundo poshuracán: Puerto Rican Art in the Wake of Hurricane Maria” at the Whitney is a seminal event in the history of the self-proclaimed museum of American art. Coinciding with the fifth anniversary of the category-four storm that hit Puerto Rico in 2017, the show brings together 20 artists who actively interrogate the tragedy and transformation realized by Hurricane Maria.

The work of 15 of those artists was brought together in what is already the first academic exhibition focused on Puerto Rican art organized by a major U.S. museum in half a century. It is called "There Is No Post-Hurricane World: Puerto Rican Art in the Wake of Hurricane Maria," and it will be on display at the Whitney Museum of American Art, noted for its spectacular collection of modern and contemporary American art.
