TURNING THE MEANINGS OF OUR CONTINENT UPSIDE DOWN: HERLITZKA & CO. + HENRIQUE FARIA AT PINTA PArC

Peruvian photographer Roberto Huarcaya will represent his country at the Venice Biennale 2024 with his project Cosmic Traces.

The vindication of the Peruvian Jorge Eduardo Eielson (Lima, Peru, 1924) looks fundamental, far beyond any framed motivation in the round figures of the anniversaries. However, the work being done around the centenary of his birth shows a titanic effort to explore one of the most versatile artists in the plastic arts and, perhaps in his best-known aspect, in the literature of contemporary Peru.

Museo del grabado ICPNA presents Antonio Raimondi and the official representation of nature in republican Peru, curated by Luis Felipe Villacorta.

Casa de América inaugurated two exhibitions of Peruvian art: Memoria del Perú. Photographs 1890-1950, with works by various photographers that capture a significant period in the country's history, and Shipibo-Konibo. Portraits of my blood, with photographs by artist David Diaz on the life of the Shipibo-Konibo.

The geometry in Jorge Cabieses' (Lima, Peru, 1971) usual outline is broken with the action of the spontaneity of the curved and almost organic stroke in his second solo exhibition in the Spanish capital. The Lima-born artist thus proposes, in a certain way, a dialogue between the artificial of the synthetic and the atavistic through the incorporation of those more spontaneous brushstrokes over the usual framework of rectitude that the artist usually presents.

Galería Enlace presented the exhibition ¿Y si la forma no fuera un límite? by Argentinean artist Jorge Miño, with works produced in Lima and conceived to be exhibited for the first time in the city.

The Pontificia Universidad Católica (PUCP) launches the Eielson 100 festival, a week of celebration that concentrates a series of events, whose central date runs from April 8 to 15.

Lucila Gradin begins her work when creating her own natural dyes –through dyeing and medicinal plants from all over the world– and culminates it by pursuing the image that leaves every trace of this ancestral practice through embroidery, textiles and compositions on paper. The Argentine artist is part of the RADAR section of Pinta PArC 2024, together with COTT Gallery.

The NEXT section of Pinta PArC 2024 is set as a window to the Latin American emerging art scene, tracing a profound dialogue between diverse artistic systems and a dynamic collaboration with six galleries: Vigil Gonzales (Cusco and Buenos Aires), Salón Comunal (Bogotá), Enhorabuena Espacio (Madrid), Remota (Salta), Constitución (Buenos Aires) and Paseolab / Galería del Paseo (Lima and Punta del Este).

The Collection of the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Lima brings together works by Peruvian and international artists created since 1940 in media ranging from painting, sculpture and installation to photography and video. The exhibition is curated by Patricia Pajuelo, Giuliana Vidarte, Iosu Aramburu and Nicolás Gómez Echeverri.

The National Gallery of Art announced the appointment of Natalia Ángeles Vieyra as the new associate curator of Latinx art. She will assume the position on June 30. Vieyra will play a key role in the museum's work. She will join a team of seven curators in the department of modern and contemporary art dedicated to 20th- and 21st-century art.

The eleventh edition of Pinta PArC –the official contemporary art fair in Peru– will be held from April 24 to 28. It is the most attractive international cultural event in the region, and a window to learn how Peru intertwines its rich history with the most current influences of contemporary art.

Pinta PArC is the official contemporary art fair in Peru. In its 11th edition –from April 25 to 28– the fair presents an experimental and ambitious program, with unique curatorial projects.

The Sculpture Garden is one of the characteristic sections of Pinta PArC. Located outdoors at the main entrance of Casa Prado and curated by Max Hernández Calvo, the proposal explores the relationship between sculpture, architecture and green areas.

Curated by Irene Gelfman, the Video Project section at Pinta PArC invited galleries to present projects that revolve around the themes of ancestral practices, community work, Amazonia and nature.
