For the first time, twin brothers Elliot and Erick Jiménez step into a museum as an artistic duo, presenting a body of work that is both personal and deeply spiritual. Identical twins with identical passions, they work through photography to explore themes of memory, identity, and tradition, but with a profound layer of meaning rooted in their spiritual practice of Lucumí, a syncretic Afro-Caribbean religion born in late nineteenth-century Cuba. Emerging from the fusion of Yoruba, Catholicism, and Spiritism, Lucumí continues to shape lives across generations of the Cuban diaspora, and in the case of the Jiménez brothers, it has become both inspiration and guide.

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.

For his first solo exhibition in Korea, Adrián Villar Rojas reimagines Art Sonje Center as a sculptural experiment in time and space.

In her exploration of the common ground between artificial intelligence and the way it generates images, on the one hand, and human perception of the environment, on the other, there is a turning point in the Argentine artist's practice.

MARCO, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Vigo, presents Savia y sangre (Sap and Blood), a solo exhibition by Laura Lio (Buenos Aires, Argentina, 1967), which reveals the artist’s social vision and commitment through her work.
