Pinta Miami 2025 arrives during Miami Art Week with a clear mission: to elevate the visibility of Iberoamerican art through a model built on research, experimentation and dialogue. As the only fair in Miami dedicated exclusively to the artistic production of Latin America, the Caribbean, Spain and Portugal, it reinforces a cultural ecosystem that often escapes the global spotlight.

The fair returns for its nineteenth edition from December 4 to 7, once again hosted at The Hangar in Coconut Grove. The venue’s open plan and natural light offer a serene contrast to the intensity of the week. Pinta Miami 2025 leverages this setting to deliver an experience that feels slow, intentional and sharply focused on ideas.

What Defines the Core Vision of Pinta Miami 2025?

Pinta Miami 2025 continues the fair’s founding commitment to highlight a wide artistic plurality from Iberoamerica. The event operates through a structure that balances legacy, experimentation and scholarly rigor. The fair’s intellectual compass is guided by Irene Gelfman, its Global Curator, who coordinates the vision across Pinta Lima and Pinta BAphoto, ensuring that the research threads explored in the region converge cohesively in Miami.

This strategy creates a unified narrative that strengthens the presence of Latin American and Iberian modern and contemporary art during Miami Art Week. Instead of competing for global breadth, Pinta focuses on depth. The fair speaks directly to collectors seeking context, curatorial validation and artists who work with cultural, political and historical nuance.

Key Features of the 2025 Edition

  • A nineteenth edition aligned with the fair’s research-driven identity.

  • A layout designed for extended viewing and calm conversation.

  • A highly specialized audience interested in regional narratives.

The fair also maintains a strong professional focus through the Pinta Foundation, which cultivates an interconnected ecosystem of curators, collectors, galleries, artists and institutions.

How Do the Curatorial Sections Shape Pinta Miami 2025?

Pinta Miami 2025 structures its program through three main curatorial zones. Each one offers a distinct entry point into the artistic landscape of the region.

 

RADAR: Depth as a Curatorial Strategy

Curated by Isabella Lenzi, RADAR emphasizes Solo and Duo presentations. This format invites galleries to display concentrated bodies of work, creating conditions for thoughtful viewing. For collectors, the benefit is clear: a smaller number of artists, presented with conceptual and formal precision, reduces uncertainty in a volatile market. Lenzi’s curatorial rigor supports the validation of mid-career artists, increasing buyer confidence.

 

NEXT: A Platform for Experimentation

Curated by Juan Canela, NEXT focuses on emerging voices and experimental practices. In 2025, the program centers on artist-gallery duos who explore shared territories of thought.


The curatorial dialogues include:

 

Territory, Memory and History

  • Gabriela Esplá (Panama)

  • Alice Ricci (São Paulo)
    Esplá investigates the cultural disruptions tied to the Panama Canal. Ricci constructs imagined cartographies based on lived spaces.

Nature, Identity and Politics

  • Laura Castro (Santo Domingo)

  • Cecilia Ordóñez (Colombia)
    Castro fragments landscapes through painting and collage. Ordóñez works with ceramics that condense memory and the materiality of earth.

These investigations place the debates of the region at the center of the fair. NEXT articulates Pinta as a forum where artistic creation, political inquiry and historical reflection interact openly.
