Covered in Time and History: The Films of Ana Mendieta presents the largest number of artist Ana Mendieta’s films seen together in the U.S. Until now, many of Mendieta’s films have had only limited exposure. One of the most influential Cuban-American artists of post-World War II era, Mendieta’s synthesis of sculpture, earth art, and performance unflinchingly investigated what it means to be human.
