"Meet the Artist" with Genesis Báez

On Thursday, May 7, we welcome Genesis Báez to “Meet the Artist” night at CPW. Báez will present her recent monograph Blue Sun as well as new works.

Join us on select Thursday evenings at CPW, when we host illuminating talks with local and visiting artists. “Meet the Artist” allows the public to get to know new work, to hear about artistic processes, and to meet friends and other local artists. The evening takes place at CPW’s gallery at 25 Dederick Street in Kingston, NY. It is free and open to the public. Coffee, tea, and snacks are served.

“Meet the Artist” is made possible by generous grants from the Arnold & Augusta Newman Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Genesis Báez is an artist working with photography. In 2025 she published her first monograph Blue Sun (Capricious Publishing), weaving a decade of photographs made in Puerto Rico and its diaspora.

Her works are held in the permanent collections of the Museum of Modern Art, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Yale University Art Museum, and the Detroit Institute of Art.
