The Gallery at the Franklin H. Williams Caribbean Cultural Center African Diaspora Institute (CCCADI) debuts their first ever comic book exhibit, Santerians: The Art of Joe Quesada curated by Edgardo Miranda-Rodriguez of Somos Arte, a New York based creative services firm in collaboration with Marvel Entertainment, Inc. CCCADI brings to the world an exhibit of illustrations bridging the gap between super heroes and spirituality, featuring the first Latin American super-hero team, the Santerians. The exhibit offers the public an up-close view of artwork depicting characters that are based on the popular yet, misunderstood religion, Santeria. The exhibition features the original illustrations of Quesada’s work from the Marvel Comic series Daredevil: Father where the popular character Daredevil meets a new team of heroes, the Santerians. The show is now on exhibit through July 30, 2007, Monday - Friday 10:00 AM - 6:00 PM and the first Saturday of every month on the 2nd floor gallery at 408 W. 58th Street. For group tours please contact Monthina Williams at (212) 307-7420 extension 3006 or via E-mail at mwilliams@cccadi.org.
