Julia P. Herzberg, Ph.D. collection

  • CHC5650
  • Collection
  • 1979-2012

The Julia P. Herzberg, Ph.D. collection contains artist portfolios, clippings, and visual arts files.

The collection also contains an interview between Julia P. Herzberg and Helena (Holzer) Benitez, former wife of artist Wifredo Lam from 1944 to 1950. The interview took place on February 7, 1990, at 1125 Park Avenue, New York, NY, then home of Julia P. Herzberg. The discussion centers on Helena's memories of Wifredo’s paintings, his practice, their cultural life in Havana, the artist’s family, his relationship with Lydia Cabrera, and his relationship to Afro-Cubanism.

Copyright to the interview is held by Julia P. Herzberg. The interview has been digitized and can be accessed here: https://miami.app.box.com/s/sbh6jn27iqx0ooovarbt7ofw68kqmv0r/folder/308218924469.
