The article focuses on Cuban art. An unprecedented exhibit of visual art by twelve Cuban women from the island and abroad opened on November 12, 1993 at Museo Cubano de Artey Cultura in Miami, Florida. The curator, Cristina Nosti, born and raised in Miami, broke barriers by selecting works on the basis of artistic merit and thematic composition rather than on where their creators live or when they left the island. These criteria are frequently used on the island and in the exile community. Three hundred guests got a glimpse of "Arte Cubana," a manifestation of the profound transformations under way in what up to now has been the most politically intolerant city in the U.S.
