The presentation of the current season at Madrid’s Reina Sofía Museum has underscored the strategic importance of Latin America and its artistic practices in the vision of Spain’s largest public contemporary art institution. This is not something new, since its commitment as a public museum has incorporated the Ibero-American narrative as an essential part of its historical account from the beginning. However, what does stand out is the accentuation of its critical essence in a program —the first fully developed under the direction of Manuel Segade, with the exception of a single exhibition— which introduces new elements.

The Lázaro Galdiano Museum in Madrid hosts the first exhibition in Spain of veteran photographer and visual artist Julia Toro (Talca, Chile, 1933). Her photographic production yields to both simplicity and wonder, frameworks that delimit and amplify the everyday themes she addresses. The protagonists of this cyclical, customary flow of life in her work are diverse, and their problems and experiences drift among the concepts of love, pain, memory, and relationship with their surroundings.

The exhibition connects local and global issues by facilitating dialogue between Brazilian and international artists. Many of these artists are exhibiting their work in Latin America for the first time.
