Cuba Style!

Larry takes a trip down memory lane to the exotic island of Cuba, home of the Tropicana, the Conga, and rum & coca-cola. That's what the graphics and advertising industry promoted in lush art of the 20s-50s--Cuban women, dancing, music, starry nights and knock-your-socks-off beaches! As a special fundraising giveaway for those who pledge their support, we are offering a book called Cuba Style: Graphics From the Golden Age of Design (Princeton Architectural Press). Al Nodal, former general manager of Cultural Affairs of the City of Los Angeles, and Miguel Bretos, Senior scholar at the national portrait gallery, Smithsonian Institution, join Larry Mantle to talk about the image of pre-Revolutionary Cuba.
