Josefina Baez, author and performance artist, reads from her work at the Point of Contact Gallery on East Genesee Street on Thursday.

Author, educator, photographer and performance artist Josefina Baez came to the Point of Contact Gallery on East Genesee Street on Thursday. She read from her acclaimed collection Dominicanish (with a prologue written by SU professor Silvio Torres-Saillant).  The reading alternated between Spanish and English and featured themes such as cultural identity and relationships.  I don’t wait to be inspired, I just live, Baez told one of the students.
