Named after Northern Argentina’s temperate, forested area of the Andes slopes–, Yungas Arte Contemporáneo is a platform offering an alternative approach in contemporary art education, production, and thinking for visual artists as well as for working cultural administrators in various provinces of Argentina.
Promoting dialogue and experimentation, it is a bid to de-centralize art and culture in the country. This exhibition of a group of participating artists has been curated by co-founder of Yungas, Raúl Flores, an artist prominent in the new photography which emerged in Argentina in the 1990s. At the Museum of Latin American Art of Buenos Aires (MALBA), opens April 5th.
