Centenaries
The decade of the 1950s witnessed one of the most prolific periods in the history of Puerto Rican art. The confluence of catalytic events such as government support for the arts, the convergence of a group of like-minded artists, some educated abroad and exposed to the international avant-garde, and the presence of exiled Spanish artists on the island, promoted the production of the so-called Generación del 50. Connected by an established artistic tradition and a unity of purpose that did not prescribe the development of their interests, these artists introduced new themes and styles to Puerto Rican painting that are demonstrated in this selection of works created between 1953 and 1964 that are part of the collection of the Museo de Arte de Ponce.
