Untitled (Cuban revolutionaries, crowded street in Havana) after 1959

Curator: Lester Cole's small, undated gelatin silver print captures Cuban revolutionaries in a Havana street. Editor: Wow, it feels like a compressed burst of energy. The crowd is so dense, almost overflowing. Curator: Indeed. The image resonates with the fervor of revolutionary movements, particularly in the context of Cuban identity and its resistance against oppressive regimes. Cole's lens positions the viewer amidst a pivotal moment in history. Editor: You can almost feel the heat and the hope. It's a reminder that even the smallest image can hold immense power. Curator: Absolutely. Cole's composition invites us to reflect on the complexities of political change. Editor: It's definitely made me think about where we find our own collective power.
