The Florida Museum of Photographic Arts, a Tampa based non profit arts organization dedicated to exhibiting important photographic art as central to contemporary life and culture launches this campaign  to bring to Tampa the exhibition VAIVEN: Six visual journeys back and forth between Spain and the US to celebrate the Hispanic heritage month this October 2015.  


Your contributions will help reaching the remaining funds needed to bring the exhibition to Tampa for almost three months and organize additional activities such as gallery talks and workshops with the artist. 


About the exhibition
With the goal of serving the museum's diverse audience through enriching works by a wide array of domestic and international photographers
the exhibition is an open dialogue about multicultural identities and heritage, migration, and cultural assimilation though the eyes of six Spanish-American photographers. The dichotomy of belonging to two places and the constant play between the influence of cultural background versus the setting, remains the core of this exhibition. Memories, popular culture, identity, the every day life, nature and urban spaces function as starting points to analyze the motivations and expectations that lie behind each photographic series.

The diverse backgrounds of all the artists meet on the common grounds of their intersecting perspectives of both countries

Considering Tampa's multicultural diversity and its strong Spanish heritage, many Tampanians, with or without Spanish background, will identify of the topics addressed  with the visual journeys proposed by  contributing artists Ana Hayes-Pérez,  Raúl Urbina Xavier NuezJavier CorsoMonica Lek, & Carla Tramullas

Meet the artists and its works by clicking on their names or watching the following video (in English and Spanish) 


Thank you for helping us bring new and diverse voices to the museum through thought-provoking exhibits like 

Vaiven: Six visual journey's back and forth between Spain &  the US


What We Need & What You Get

The $2,850 dollars will help covering part of the expenses of installing, uninstalling  and maintaining the exhibit in FMOPA for three months as well as organizing parallel exhibits such as gallery talks and workshops. 

The exhibit already receives support from  Spain Arts & Culturethe Spanish official cultural program in the U.S. that aims to create multiple links between the creative sectors of Spain and the US to cover production and transportation costs, but we still need additional  funds to make the project come to live in Tampa. 

In addition to showing  your name in our THANK YOU wall at the exhibit, you will receive THANK YOU gifts for your contributions such as photobooks,  museum memberships, photography workshops, photo sessions and personal photography lessons with luxusphotography.com  & award winning photographer & FMOPA's instructor Jeremy Scott. Check the perks section for details.
