Artist: Jorge Eduardo Eielson
As part of the celebrations marking the 100th anniversary of the birth of Jorge Eduardo Eielson (Lima, 1924 - Milan, 2006), Pinta PArC hosted a special section dedicated to the artist, curated by Sharon Lerner. The exhibit featured works from both public and private collections from the 1980s and highlighted the lesser-known aspects of the artist’s production.
The Main Section of the fair is comprised of a meticulously selected group of galleries from various cities around the world, chosen for the quality and innovation of their offerings. In this edition, more than 200 artists from the region participated, strengthening the commitment to showcase the diversity and excellence of Latin American artistic production.
NEXT is an innovative platform that allows fair attendees to discover the latest art from Latin America. In this edition, the section brought together six galleries that committed to emerging artists engaged with their contexts and the artistic experimentation of the region.
The RADAR Section aims to highlight a set of artistic productions that, through various languages and media, focus on art's ability to re-educate our perception regarding our environment, raise awareness about the care of natural resources, and prioritize ancestral practices and knowledge in the face of the imminent habitability crisis of our planet.
Video Project is the cross-sectional section at all Pinta fairs that focuses exclusively on innovative and immersive proposals that work with moving images. In this edition, galleries were invited to present projects revolving around the following themes: ancestral practices, community work, the Amazon, and nature. During the fair, the selected projects were exhibited.
The Sculpture Garden is conceived as a space that explores the relationships between sculpture, architecture, and green areas. As an outdoor section, it enables an imaginative and playful dialogue between the artistic proposals and the physical characteristics of the location.
Special Project encourages the realization of site-specific projects that can co-exist with the architecture of Casa Prado's hall, which, due to its stylistic and spatial characteristics, allows artists to delve into different artistic languages and formats.
This series of conversations addresses current debates relevant to the creation ecosystems in Latin America. From the perspectives of visual arts, curatorial practice, collecting, and art history research, meetings are held to discuss ongoing themes and issues in contemporary contexts.
Every day at Pinta PArC, special tours are offered that invite attendees to explore the fair and its various universes through the perspectives of its curators and artists.

At Pinta PArC, mónimo invited families to immerse themselves in illustrated stories through participating in a mural intervention to unlock narratives and imaginary worlds. This was an invitation to explore images and texts, to observe the neighborhood and the community, and to transform it into a collective artistic intervention.
