Speaking in the inauguration of the exhibit named “Holguin, Victory of Ideas,” local government’s vice president Daniel Tarrago said the pictures show aspects of Cuban life in the present and noted that it is also dedicated to those who fell during the heroic deeds of July 26, 1953.

The exhibit that will be open until July 30 in the main hall of Holguin's Arts Center includes six large-format pictures representing the achievements of the province in the fields of education, health, economy, culture, nickel and agriculture.

The photos also show the political progress of the Cuban Revolution and the efforts of the people of the area to recover from the damage of Hurricane Ike on September 2008, in particular in the housing sector.Among the highlights of the exposition is a series of pictures of Fidel Castro in his several visits to the province starting on February 17, 1959, when he addressed the people of Holguin for the first time through his speech in the city delivered in July 26, 2006.
