Primicias de América en la República Dominicana spawns from a collection of thirty-three posters that present -in an educational manner- information about people and historical events that marked the first decades of the XVI century in La Hispaniola, and marked the beginning of the European expansion to the new continent.

These topics have been revised with information about the key figures and actions that took place in the territories now belonging to the Dominican Republic. These events and people are linked to the discovery, conquest, and colonization of the new world, and are recognized as transforming agents of both universal and continental history.
