- A Dominican-based conservationist and photographer, Fernández is documenting the efforts of a distinguished team of international scientists as they unravel the workings of evolution being played out on the island of Hispaniola.

- Out of Focus Nuyoricans
- Adál Maldonado
- Adál's artistry is neither conventional nor pleasing for the spectator, as it is acquired through the continuous questioning of the particular condition of Puerto Ricans in the United States. If there is anything we should clearly get out of these out-of-focus portraits, it is that to look fuzzy to some is not a condition to be feared or dreaded, but an achievement to be attained. This book was published as a companion to the exhibits "Auto-Portraits/Blue Bananas on Fire" and "Blueprints for a Nation" at the David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies in 2004.
