There was a longstanding myth in the Latine art world: An apartment fire had destroyed much of Sophie Rivera’s legacy. So, imagine @elmuseo.bsky.social’s surprise when the late photographer’s husband provided them with original negatives and prints. (He has since passed, too.)
“Double Exposures” at El Museo del Barrio features Sophie Rivera’s work from her decades of portraiture to the more experimental and is on display through Aug. 2.
