International Forum, April 8
The intersection of politics and graphic art in Cuba presented by Dr. Sara Cooper, Foreign Languages and Literatures
Contemplating the series of events that transpired in Cuba and the United States between January 1, 1959 and December 2, 1961, one can easily see an absurd political tit-for-tat in which each country tried to establish itself as king of the sandbox. Nowhere does this play itself out more remarkably than in the Cuban funny papers, where in the great tradition of caricature worldwide, Cuban graphic artists vilified the United States, called into question US power and manhood, and taunted Uncle Sam to test the resolve of the Cuban people to resist invasion and political control. In this presentation, Dr. Cooper discusses several examples of political cartoons from 1959-1962 and 1998-2007 in order to demonstrate the humorous (and childish) development of the Cuban anti-US position during those years.
Tues., April 8, 5pm - 5:50pm in HOLT 170
