This collection was started in 2014 when files were separated from the three Vertical Files that related to art, galleries, and artists both in Cuba and the Diaspora. It continues to grow with new additions being added directly to the Artist Files that relate to art, artists, and galleries.

This collection receives frequent additions and is expected to continue growing.
