Things to do in Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico: The Best Art Galleries

La Casa de los Contrafuertes is an independent project open to the public, that started in the year 2012 as an art work which is committed to seek, expose and encourage overlaps among the works of artists of all disciplines focusing on the Caribbean and its diasporas. Our project is organized around the metaphor of the beehive. It is physically nestled, as a site-specific piece, in a historic heritage building, the oldest civil structure in Old San Juan Puerto Rico, which used to be a ruin at the time we began our effort. We were able to restore the building to code with volunteer work and started a beautiful garden of medicinal and edible plants in its courtyard. Work that fosters a collaborative project in continuous development that explores and promotes the porosity of research, creation and exchange processes between artists from different disciplines, from the Caribbean and its diasporas. This voluntary and self-managed initiative, jointly directed by the artists Charles Juhász-Alvarado and Ana Rosa Rivera, saw its origins in 2012. Today, it has continued to grow true to the original vision of promoting conversations, crossings and creation among artists of different backgrounds. fields In this work, the project has hosted a number of activities and exhibitions that have called diverse audiences. Since the building itself was in a state of near ruins at the beginning of the project, the task of enabling it has been the product of collaborative volunteer work. Today the site enjoys clean and bright spaces suitable for work and exhibition, as well as a garden of edible and medicinal plants.
