JO COSME

Welcome to Paradise: ¡Viva Puerto Rico Libre! / Exhibition Catalog

This full-color 68-page catalog documents Welcome to Paradise: ¡Viva Puerto Rico Libre!, the November exhibition by artist Jo Cosme at Seattle Office of Arts & Culture: ARTS at King Street Station Gallery in Seattle, WA. It features all of Cosme’s works from the show, each accompanied by statements and descriptions that trace the project’s exploration of Puerto Rico’s colonial legacy, tourism, and everyday survival.

The publication also includes the group exhibition, presenting over 40 works by more than 30 artists from the archipelago, alongside their bios and contact information. Together, these pages form a record of voices reclaiming the narrative of Puerto Rico - transforming what’s often seen as paradise into a site of memory, protest, and resilience.

The catalog will be signed. Price is a sliding scale from $35 - $50 pay what you can afford.

Added Note:

As an installation artist, I rarely get the chance to sell my work. Offering this catalog helps me support myself once the show ends and allows me to keep funding and creating more large-scale pieces like this one.

Thanks so much for your support.
