Roberto Lugo's solo exhibition "Orange and Black" at Art@Bainbridge, Princeton University Art Museum, presents his recent ceramic works that blend ancient Grecian vessel forms with contemporary narratives of Black and Latinx culture. The show features vases from his "Orange and Black Series" and "What Had Happened Was" series, depicting figures like Roberto Clemente, Selena Quintanilla, Ruby Bridges, Jackie Robinson, and the Central Park Five, alongside sculptural fragments designed to appear weathered and ancient. The exhibition runs through July 6, 2025.

Artist Ektor Rivera has created a painting titled "The Discovery of Americans" (2025) that reimagines Emanuel Leutze's "Washington Crossing the Delaware" to celebrate Puerto Rican cultural figures, with Bad Bunny at the center. The work was commissioned by Miami art collector Seth Goldberg as a response to conservative criticism over Bad Bunny being selected to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show. The five-by-eight-foot painting places George Washington in the background while Puerto Rican icons including Jennifer Lopez, Ricky Martin, and Roberto Clemente take center stage, with Bad Bunny draped in the Puerto Rican flag. The artwork has garnered over 2.3 million views on Instagram and Facebook.
