ALEJANDRA MONTEVERDE AND CRISIS GALERÍA: MEMORY, BODY, AND TERRITORY

MAC Lima has inaugurated Contemporáneo 1. Materia :: Alchemy :: Device :: Flow, an exhibition poised to become a landmark for contemporary art in Peru. The show, the first in a series of biennial exhibitions based on the museum's collection, brings together the work of over 100 local contemporary artists.

Peruvian artist Yerko Zlatar, alongside Mariana Otero, director of Puna gallery (Peru), explores the contemporaneity of traditional crafts in the NEXT Section of the fair. The collaborative duo showcases unique pieces rooted in traditional practices such as weaving, ceramics, and basketry, understood as living languages that enable the creation of new works of art.

Pinta Lima returns for its 12th edition from April 24 to 27, 2025, bringing with it three Bogotá-based galleries offering versatile and thought-provoking proposals. Together, they create a dialogue that spans a wide thematic universe characteristic of contemporary art: exploring the passage of time and materiality, questioning art history and identity, and exposing the visual culture of mass media.

As part of the artistic and technological innovation of the #12 edition of Pinta Lima, the winning proposal for the artistic intervention of the Audi Q6 e-tron, a 100% electric vehicle of the Audi company, was announced. The work entitled “Aurora Mar” by artist Gabriela María Ganoza Tacchino was selected for its powerful environmental message and its innovative use of sustainable materials.

At the Lima Art Museum – MALI, the exhibition Yerko Zlatar. Ancestral Technology is currently on view. This show invites reflection on the contrast between the deep, harmonious connection that ancient Andean civilizations had with the cosmos and their environment, and the way we now live, governed by a technology driven by consumerism and individualism.

This 2025, the EFG Latin America Art Award celebrates its 15th anniversary, consolidated as one of the most relevant recognitions of contemporary creation in the region. Within the framework of Pinta Lima, one of the fairs where the selection of nominated artists takes place, the impact this award has had on the visibility of Latin American visual arts is highlighted.

The sustained rise of Peruvian artists in the contemporary art circuit abroad, the incipient professionalization of the gallery circuit and an expanding local collecting are symptoms of an ecosystem that, although still young, is consolidating. In this context, Pinta Lima inaugurates its 2025 edition as a platform that makes the country's artistic production visible and presents its circuit of Collection Talks within the framework of the FORO conversation.

In its 2025 edition, the Latin American contemporary art fair presents, through RADAR and Video Project, a selection of works that engage with key issues of the present—both within the artistic field and beyond it: from questions surrounding the re-signification of ancestral knowledge to reflections on the idiosyncrasies of human nature.

Interview with Edouard Gouin, Co-founder of Convelio.

The Museo de Arte de Lima (MALI) presents Transformaciones visuales, an exhibition dedicated to the work of Peruvian artist Bruno Zeppilli. The show offers a provocative reading of how certain images persist in Peru’s collective memory.

The enduring legacy of Teresa Burga (Iquitos, 1935 – Lima, 2021) is celebrated at the Latin American art fair Pinta Lima, where she was selected as the tribute artist for the Special Project, curated by Miguel A. López. The exhibition brings together, for the first time, various moments of her production between 1966 and 2020, showcasing the intelligence, boldness, and versatility of an artist who was not always recognized or understood in her time.

A system. An architecture. A way of setting out the guidelines that connect millenary myths with the manifestations provided by the present. Lo que este paisaje puede decir sobre el futuro (What this landscape can say about the future), Pinta Lima's Special Project, is an oracle: a sacred space that reveals the union between what is and what can be.

Alberto Rebaza is one of the most influential collectors in Peru. He began collecting in the late 1990s, driven by the rebirth of contemporary Peruvian art. Alongside his wife, Ginette Lumbroso, he has expanded the Rebaza Collection to include Latin American and European artists, with a keen eye for the connections between art and culture. They also lead an artist residency program that promotes exchange between international creators and the local scene. In conversation with Arte al Día, he shares his perspective on collecting, the value of residencies, and the role of art as a tool for connection.

After four days of intense activity, during which key figures from the international and regional contemporary art scenes came together, the twelfth edition of Pinta Lima concluded at Casa Prado, reaffirming itself as one of the main events for contemporary art in Peru. This edition, directed by Irene Gelfman, celebrated cultural legacy and projected the future of Latin American art at a time when the Peruvian ecosystem —with the international rise of its artists, the strengthening of its gallery circuit, and the growth of local collecting— is advancing strongly toward consolidation.

Bogotá’s art scene was reinvigorated this past weekend with a new edition of ARTBO | Fin de Semana, held from Friday, April 25 to Sunday, April 27. Unlike the main fair taking place in late September, this format invites visitors to explore the city’s key contemporary art circuits, with gallery openings, guided tours, talks, and performances across various cultural venues.

This was my first visit to Lima (and I hope it’s the first of many), and I came to take part in Pinta Lima 2025—an incredibly enriching experience. From the opening to the close, the fair was full of life: buzzing rooms, lively conversations, and unexpected encounters. There was an unmistakable energy in the air, the kind that comes from a city that takes seriously its place on the Latin American contemporary art map.
