In each edition, the Main Section of the fair is made up of a carefully curated selection of galleries from different cities around the world, chosen for the quality and innovation of their proposals. In 2024 alone, over 200 artists from the region participated, showcasing the diversity and excellence of Latin America's artistic production.
The NEXT section of Pinta Lima 2025 explores the integration of unconventional crafts into contemporary art, influenced by knowledge from indigenous groups. It also presents meditative practices that question the relationship between thinking and doing, proposing a polyphony of artistic approaches that go beyond representation to conceive and build the world.
The FORO of Pinta Lima 2025, is a reflective space focused on new perspectives of the Latin American artistic ecosystem.
It will also feature Collection Talks, a series that explores the challenges surrounding private and institutional collections in Latin America.
This section honors the outstanding Peruvian artist Teresa Burga (1935-2021), a pioneer of conceptual and multimedia art. Known for her experimental approach, Burga challenged the norms of contemporary art from the 1960s, exploring pop aesthetics, mass culture, and the intersection of gender. Throughout her career, she combined painting, sculpture, installation, and cybernetic media, deeply influencing art in Peru and worldwide. This Special Project seeks to revive her legacy and highlight her contribution to the global art scene, especially after her return to the scene in the 2000s.
