Paola Núñez Solorio is one of the most dynamic visual artists working today. Immigration, tradition and solitude are some of her recurring themes. Núñez Solorio has the exceptional ability to capture candid moments and expressions that translate these intense emotions through her images.
Paola Núñez Solorio graduated from the International Center of Photography in 2010. Since 2005 she has been widely exhibited in the United States and Mexico. She has been the recipient of several international photography awards, such as 2nd Prize at the Julia Margaret Cameron Award, Silver Medal at the Prix de la Photographie Paris 2011, finalist at Exposure, finalist at Havana Times, and finalist at the National Geographic-PDN World in Focus Contest. Her work has been published in the New York Times, Cuartoscuro, PDN, Popular Mechanics, Havana Times, and One Life Photo Book, as well as in web portals worldwide.
ABOUT THIS EXHIBITION
Mariachi is a fundamental element of traditional Mexican culture, a vehicle for the transmission of heritage and history from one generation to another. This project aims to share, preserve, and honor Mexican culture and the people invested in keeping their traditions alive. No culture can subsist without people passing on their legacy to younger generations, a tall order for immigrants in particular.
Support for the exhibition Serenade for New York is provided, in part by, Cantina Royal, Colgate, Genesis Beverage Brands, Rabbithole Projects, and public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council.
