Session Abstract
Join us to celebrate the art of Pura Cruz. Pura Cruz is a Puerto Rican feminist artist who grew up in East Harlem but now lives and works on Long Island. Inspired by, among other things, her childhood experiences, her family, New York City, Long Island, Wonder Woman, and feminism, Pura believes that “any painting is a dialogue. You make social and political statements with your work.” Her work graces the 17th Berkshire Conference web site and the printed program.
