Cuba: El joven creador en la sociedad que se reordena

La Asociación Hermanos Saíz (AHS), organización juvenil que agrupa a artistas de diferentes manifestaciones de todo el país, se encuentra en el proceso que precede a su segundo Congreso; que sesionará en plenario entre el 16 y el 19 de octubre del presente año en el Palacio de Convenciones de La Habana. Pero la calidad y cantidad de los debates camino a octubre hacen que lo discutido hasta el momento sea tan relevante para los destinos de la Asociación como el Congreso mismo. Acerca de este tema y de la manera en que se concibe a sí misma la organización en el escenario cubano actual, Luis Morlote, su presidente y activo partícipe del proceso en las bases a lo largo de la Isla, señala no pocas rutas de interés.
