ARCOmadrid-Soloprojects Focus Latin America
Themes and Curators selected for 2016 ARCOmadrid
All galleries interested in participating in the General Programme of the 35th edition of ARCOmadrid, to be held from 24 to 28 of February 2016, have until Friday 3 July to submit their application.
The Organising Committee, which will come together on 13 and 14 July, will be placing particular importance on the quality of the projects, the relevance of the artists presented and galleries' effort to promote their artists.
The directors of the section, Irene Hofmann and Lucia Sanromán, have invited a curatorial team comprised of two young professionals who live and work in close relation with the Latin American context from an international perspective: María do Carmo M. P. de Pontes (independent curator and writer, Sao Paulo/London) and Ruth Estévez (director and curator of the RedCat gallery, Bilbao/Los Angeles).
On this occasion the section will be organised around two lines of research: Art at the intersection with time in the fields of theatre, music and dance and Subversion through humour.
ARCOmadrid has opened applications for participation in the #SoloProjects section until 25 September. Over the last five years this programme has established itself as a space for the showcase and research of Latin American art.
