Tributo a Albert Rodríguez (2021)
Dimensions 10’ x 45’ aprox.
This mural was created in honor of the legacy of Puerto Rican artist Albert Rodríguez, following his unexpected loss. The mural was part of a special event organized by his colleagues in the art industry and the National Talent Academy program in Arecibo, Puerto Rico. Albert Rodríguez had contacted Ciudad Museo months before his passing with the intention of painting a flag to be displayed at the academy. Due to his premature departure, this project could not be realized during his lifetime; however, in honor of his memory, Ciudad Museo came together to make his idea a reality. The mural includes the Puerto Rican flag, as Albert had envisioned, and next to it a portrait of him to immortalize the importance of his work and contribution to Puerto Rican art, celebrating and paying tribute like this to his artistic vision and compromise to his community and his art.
Located on the facade of the National Talent Academy in Arecibo, Puerto Rico.
