Temporal Chronology
A Trajectory of the Puerto Rican Workshop, aka Taller Boricua, founded in 1969....Read More
TEMPORAL CHRONOLOGY is a historical presentation that embodies Taller Boricua’s accumulated visual and descriptive storyline containing possible variant interpretations of lifelong accomplishments and related historical events.
The continuous influx of global digital information that continues increasing has reached a point that presently negatively affects our ability to correctly study and learn from the past to defend our cultural legacy and secure a healthy, prosperous, and collective future. As formidable entrants into a secure era of peace with our sovereign freedoms still intact, we will need to devolve our cultural history to promote critical and independent thinking. The Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Expression are the pillars that will maintain our Freedoms to continue creating ART.
The goal now is for the Taller Boricua, aka Puerto Rican Workshop Inc., is to anchor the essential foundational groundwork required in compiling, deciphering, and perpetually making publicly available five decades of Taller Boricua’s archivally stored materials. We intend to leave the digital doors open to new and diverse, updated social-political and cultural interpretations of relevant past histories to keep the timeline as contextual and accurate as possible.
Women on the Edge of Time
Commemorating the observance and celebration of the vital role of women in American history
"Women on the Edge" EXHIBIT ARTISTS LINKS
Taller Boricua is pleased to announce our first online exhibit for 2021. Beginning on March 17, 2021, an outstanding and diverse collection of art by members from the prestigious and long-standing New York arts organization, NYSWA, New York Society of Women Artists, will be shown. These works commemorate the observance of Women’s History Month. Given the present socio-political and environmental-climate that our world is currently living through, creativity continues to be the driving force that sustains and empowers us to stand our ground and meet tomorrow’s challenges. Using various artistic genres, these artists strongly express ideas for social justice and the struggle for equality through their work.
The 100th Anniversary of their Society’s formation lays down a historical marker to be appreciated and learned from by the forthcoming generation of aspiring women artists. Under Natalie Giugni’s leadership, NYSWA continues forging its important mission. This exhibit demonstrates that the demand for freedom and recognition is as relevant today, one hundred years after the Women’s Suffrage Movement began in the late 19th century in America. Bravo to the New York Society of Women Artists and Bienvenidas a Taller Boricua.

Realidades was the first national Latino television series in public television history in the United States of America. The groundbreaking television series highlighted a cross-section of events, activities, organizations, and individuals, all of which were significantly illustrating and defining our ”realities” during the 1960s and 1970s
In 1971, Jorge Soto began working with the Taller Boricua artists' workshop's collaborators, whose art reflected an ideological re-revisioning of the "roots" of Puerto Rican culture and attempted to reconcile this with the experiences of the Puerto Rican diaspora.
Celebrating printmaking Masters who ennobled the tradition of social advocacy and creative freedom.
