Contemporary Art Fair

#arteBA25

In 2016, arteBA will hold its 25th edition so we will be celebrating the fact throughout the upcoming year, together with the Buenos Aires art scene and the city’s major institutions. The fair, which will run from May 19 through 22 at the convention center La Rural, will include a program of public interventions and various activities in the main museums and art centers of the city of Buenos Aires.

For this important anniversary, arteBA has invited 3 winners of the Young Curators Program to propose a curating project for the past quarter-century of Argentine art for the section DIXIT. Federico Baeza, Lara Marmor and Sebastián Vidal Mackinson have come up with a plan that will link the visual arts with various works of literature, music, film and theater arts in and outside the fair.

As they do every year, preeminent professionals will have the task of selecting the participants for the various sections and program of the 2016 fair.
