Join The Clemente and Historias at NADA New York 2025 for their programming schedule, NADA Presents. For the 11th edition of the fair, NADA will host a signature series of conversations and performances curated by Amanda Riesman held at The Starrett-Lehigh Building, with programs occurring daily from May 7–11. The Clemente will be hosting talks discussing Domino Table Talks, one of our Historias Signature Series.
Collaboration and Knowledge Justice in Latinx Cultural Production
Thursday, May 8, 3pm
This conversation will introduce the Historias initiative and The Clemente's artist-driven model that’s rethinking how institutions support Latinx cultural work—especially across public art, knowledge, justice, and representation.
Featuring Libertad O. Guerra (Executive Director of The Clemente), Shaun Leonardo (Artist, Educator, and Historias Advisor), Cinthya Santos Briones (Artist and Community Organizer), and Jonathan Gonzalez (Artist). Moderated by Sofía S. Reeser del Rio, (Curator and Associate Director of Programs of The Clemente).
Thursday, May 8, 4pm
Join artist Edra Soto and Public Art Fund Senior Curator Melanie Kress for a conversation about Graft, Soto’s first large-scale public art exhibition in New York City, and the role of dominoes in Soto's work. Graft is a monument to working class Puerto Rican communities where tables and seating invite visitors to enjoy a moment of rest, connection, and reflection–or a game of dominoes. Soto, who is presenting a solo booth with Morgan Lehman Gallery for NADA New York, and Kress will speak about their collaboration with The Clemente for Domino Table Talks, a signature project for Historias that hosts intimate, intergenerational conversations designed to document the oral histories of the community through the lens of domino culture.
Domino Table Talks Episode Screenings and Domino Play
Thursday, May 8, 5pm
Domino Table Talks episodes will screen on rotation until the end of the fair, while guests are invited to join a domino game at tables set up in the space for play.
