A 36-meter sculptural relief reflecting Ernesto Che Guevara is inaugurated on the main facade of the Ministry of the Interior building in the José Martí Revolution Square.

The work is based on Alberto Korda's world famous photo and the inscription Until victory always, a phrase reflected by Che in the farewell letter he left to Fidel Castro when he left Cuba in 1965 to make his internationalist contribution to the cause of other peoples. The author of the sculptural relief of Che was the painter, sculptor, engraver and designer Enrique Avila Gonzalez.

Alberto Díaz Gutiérrez (Alberto Korda)

He was born on September 14, 1928 in Havana. In his work as a photographer he was fully motivated. It was said about him that he turned out to be a man of his time, deeply devoted and with exceptional virtuosity. He contributed to reflect as a great chronicler the era in which he lived.  He was the creator of the photo of Che Guevara in which his face is reflected. He died suddenly on May 25, 2001 in France where he was to present an exhibition.
