ENJOY THE PINTA CONCEPT EXPERIENCE – NOW OPEN
Miami’s leading art fair for Latin American art opens its doors to the public at a new location. Promising exhibitions, emerging and established talents, and exciting announcements will feature in Pinta 2021. Tickets are available here
Presenting 43 galleries and institutions from 11 countries, this year’s edition of Pinta offers the public an exceptional showcase of mainly contemporary art. After the pandemic and subsequent global crisis, Pinta aimed its efforts at providing artists and exhibitors an international platform with far-reaching visibility and commercial networks.
Highlighted this year are the Solo Projects and Special Projects sections, which offer distinctive attention to the expression of artists who illustrate the richness and complexity in Latin American identities, traditions, and popular cultures.
Curated by Oscar Roldán and Luis Fumero, the Solo Projects section provides visitors with the possibility to relate more personally and profoundly with the artists.
For the Special Projects section, curated by the esteemed Félix Suazo, the emphasis is put on social and ecological concerns as portrayed by artists Nan González, Martín Touzón and Lisu Vega. Very much related to issues faced in Miami, as well as globally, the installations in this section are an unmissable and eye-opening experience where aesthetics lead to philosophical and existential matters like interconnection, memory, the impact of human actions and the value of ancestral cultures and techniques.

AMAZE ME AND I AMAZE YOU – FRIEDEBERG AT DOT FIFTYONE GALLERY, MIAMI
Dot Fiftyone presents the first solo show of the celebrated Mexican artist Pedro Friedeberg in the gallery. With a career spanning more than six decades, Friedeberg is considered an outstanding and emblematic cultural figure. Born in 1936, he was first recognized as a Surrealist artist alongside Leonora Carrington and Remedios Varo. He originally trained as an architect and rejected modernism, turning to art with his mentor and friend Mathias Goeritz. In the early 1960s he was part of the interdisciplinary group Los Hartos (The Fed-Ups), always opposing the canon as well as visual and conceptual trends. The irony and absurdity that has characterized his broader artistic practice is embodied in the Mano-Silla (Hand Chair), which has elevated him to the global sphere since 1962. He remains prolific and is significant for new generations.
