Havana Youth: Cuba's New Creative Class

By Greg Kahn

"If I had to describe this body of work in one word, I would begin with Greg Kahn's understanding of 'identity' and his investigation of individuality, uniqueness and freedom." - Float Magazine

In Havana Youth, Greg Kahn explores Cubans born after 1989, who have only known a time after the USSR dissolved and left the Caribbean nation with few resources and a growth-crippling, US-led economic embargo. Those kids, born during what is called "The Special Period", are now in their twenties and developing a sense of individuality in a society that was historically focused on collectivism. This is their cultural counter-revolution, and they are redefining what it means to be Cuban.
