Abstract

This essay offers a critical reading of the exhibition ¡Azúcar! The Life and Music of Celia Cruz. Focusing on the negotiations between institutional expectations and curatorial practice, this piece analyzes performance-based curatorial strategies employed in the articulation of an alternative to the narrative of Latina/o history at the Smithsonian. The author argues for a critical engagement with performance as an affective and effective approach to the exhibition of latinidad.
