This 1995 poster by Luis Alonso was created for Elizam Entra Libre, a multidisciplinary cultural program combining dance, theater, cinema, and choreography under the direction of Petra Bravo. During the 1990s, Puerto Rico saw a resurgence of experimental performance art, with creators like Bravo expanding traditional forms through Afro-Caribbean rhythms, expressive movement, and political themes.
Alonso’s energetic scribble-style figure conveys motion, transformation, and the breaking of boundaries—key themes in Bravo’s work. The multicolored headdress alludes to Caribbean folklore and ritual costuming, while the blue silhouettes behind the central figure represent layers of identity, history, and collective memory. This piece documents a vibrant era of Puerto Rican avant-garde performance.
