LIVING ART AT COCONUT GROVE: THE EXPERIENCES THAT SET PINTA MIAMI APART
With Special Projects, the Sculpture Garden, and the FORO program, the fair stands as the key meeting point for Latin American art during Miami Art Week.
From December 4 to 7, 2025, Pinta Miami returns as one of the cultural highlights of the city, gathering artists, collectors, and art lovers in Coconut Grove’s historic Dinner Key. Under the curatorial direction of Irene Gelfman, the fair strengthens its commitment to contemporary and multidisciplinary Latin American art through a program that merges curatorial rigor, market visibility, and public engagement.
This edition welcomes Isabella Lenzi as curator of RADAR —focused on solo and duo artist projects— and Juan Canela as curator of NEXT, dedicated to emerging and experimental artists. With over 40 participating galleries from North and South America and Europe, and a geographic reach that spans 25 cities, Pinta Miami continues to expand its international presence.

Pinta Miami 2025
Three pillars define the fair’s distinctive character: Special Projects, the Sculpture Garden, and FORO.
Special Projects
The Special Project of Pinta Miami 2025 brings together two gestures that reconfigure the relationship between art, craft, and territory. Nicola Costantino, presented by Pommery, installs a flower kiosk where she offers handmade ceramic pieces from her PaRDeS line: each flower is a unique object that the artist personally hands to visitors, shifting the logic of the market toward an affective and essential economy. Alongside her, the work of Ana Teresa Barboza unfolds a textile universe rooted in Peruvian landscapes and memories. Her materials—cotton threads, wool, stones, reeds—reveal community bonds, open-ended processes, and a sensibility grounded in nature.
Sculpture Garden
The Sculpture Garden of Pinta Miami 2025, curated by Irene Gelfman, presents two approaches to perception and movement. Priscila Schott exhibits Untitled (2025), a work in PVC, acrylic, and a metal core that activates the gaze through translucent and opaque planes that shift with light and the viewer’s path, creating a vibrant, democratic space at The Hangar, Coconut Grove. In dialogue, the piece by Rafael Barrios expands his investigation of volume and optical illusion: forms that fold, expand, or appear to float, generating tensions between the real and the imagined within a landscape of pure perception.
FORO: Decoding the Art Market
Led by Irene Gelfman, FORO is Pinta’s space for critical reflection and professional exchange. The 2025 edition brings together artists, curators, collectors, and researchers to discuss the current dynamics of the Latin American art market. Speakers such as María Sancho-Arroyo and Juan Cruz Andrada will explore globalization, sustainability, innovation, and evolving market trends. FORO provides a platform to understand challenges and redefine the future.
