In this fourteenth special edition of Pinta Miami, the largest art fair specialized in Latin America art in the United States adds two new sections to its program: Photo and Edition. With the relevance that photography has been gaining within the international art scene and with the importance that graphic arts have had for the transition from modern to contemporary art, both sections have been designed to represent a broader perspective of Latinamerican artistic production and its value in the evolution of artistic language.

Represented in Pinta by Casa Hoffmann, Alba Triana is a Colombian artist who works in formats that defy the planes of time and space, hearing and vision. Her interdisciplinarity transits the intersection between science and art, making music of movement and aesthetics of light.
