Sculpture Room 2

YOAN CAPOTE
Immanence, 2015
Steel
Date: 2015
Artist: Yoan Capote
Material: Steel
Object label: From 1959 until his death in 2016, Fidel Castro dominated Cuban life and culture as a monumental steel sculpture. Thousands of rusted door hinges were exchanged for the sculpture. Capote traded new hinges for old corroded hinges that were still being used in people's homes. For more than half a century, Cubans have been oppressed by social and political pressures that have been imposed on them by the United States trade embargo.
