Anthony Cudahy
Cudahy's first US museum solo show, “Spinneret,” opened at Ogunquit Museum of American Art, Maine in 2024, and was on view at the Green Family Art Foundation in Dallas, TX, through January 2025. In the fall of 2024, his solo show, “Like Night Needs Morning,” was on view at CAP Centre d'arte de Saint-Fons in Saint-Fons (FR). In 2023, Cudahy's first solo institutional exhibition, “Conversation,” opened at the Museum of Fine Arts, Dole, France. Cudahy's parallel solo shows, “Fool’s gold” and “Fool’s errand,” were on view at Hales and GRIMM's New York galleries in the fall of 2024.
According to Raimundo Respall, the late director of Taller Experimental de Grafica, “To do a show where Cuban artists take as a starting point the works of an American photographer and then work with the very lithographs made by an American printmaker-- besides being a gesture of solidarity and support, is also a voice against terrorism, against violence, vandalism. This exhibition can have an incalculable resonance; not just for its cultural and artistic value but because of the influence it can have on other artists. My hope is that this exhibition teaches through art a way to express opposition to all violence, a way to say ‘No.’”
