Cuban 5 art shown in Oregon
 
BY CECELIA MORIARITY  
EUGENE, Oregon—More than 100 people attended the March 5 opening of Antonio Guerrero’s art exhibition “From My Altitude” at the Fenario Gallery here.

Together with Gerardo Hernández, René González, Fernando González, and Ramón Labañino, Guerrero was arrested in 1998 in Miami, where the five were monitoring the activities of right-wing Cuban exiles who have launched armed attacks on Cuba. They were convicted on trumped-up “conspiracy” charges and have been unjustly held in U.S. prisons ever since.

One of the gallery’s walls features large photos of each of the Cuban Five along with reproductions of their statements made at the time of sentencing. Guerrero’s artwork lines the opposite wall. The exhibition runs through March 20. For more information on showing the exhibit in your area, go to www.freethefive.org.
