Tricontinental Magazine - Che Guevara Special Issue (2002)

A striking special issue of Tricontinental magazine published by OSPAAAL (Organization of Solidarity of the People of Africa, Asia and Latin America), featuring iconic cover art by renowned Cuban poster artist Alfredo Rostgaard. The psychedelic, multi-colored portrait of Che Guevara against a cosmic background exemplifies Rostgaard's distinctive style that has defined OSPAAAL's visual identity since the organization's founding.

The cover text reads: "It's not because you have fallen that the light from your star shines less" - a powerful tribute to Che's enduring legacy 35 years after his death in Bolivia in 1967. This issue includes articles such as "The Last Time that Piñeiro Spoke about Che," "I was Che's Friend," "The Photos of the Photo," and various testimonials from those who knew and fought alongside Guevara.

Published from OSPAAAL's headquarters in Havana (Calle C No.668 e/27 y 29, Vedado), Tricontinental served as the official voice of Third World revolutionary movements during and after the Cold War, promoting anti-imperialist solidarity across continents. Design by Leonid Prado Naranjo.
