The Museum of Contemporary Art in New York (MoMA) announced last week that in 2023 it will present a major exhibition of contemporary Latin American artists “who have used history as a material source to create new works.”

According to a releasethe show will bring together 65 works, including videos, photographs, paintings and sculptures, by some 40 artists from different generations who have worked in Latin America over the past 4 decades.

Among them are the Brazilians Cildo Meireles, Rosângela Rennó and Mauro Restiffe; the Colombians Raimond Chaves and José Alejandro Restrepo, the Argentine Leandro Katz, the Venezuelan Suwon Lee, the Peruvian Gilda Mantilla, the Mexican Mario García Torres, the Uruguayan Alejandro Cesarco and the Guatemalan Regina José Galindo.

Specifically, a “transformative” group of works, mainly from the 21st century, donated by the Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros in 2018, will be highlighted, in dialogue with new acquisitions, loans and commissions from the late 1980s to the present of MoMa .

The exhibition, which will be available from April 30 to September 9, 2023 on the third floor of the museum, will examine through 3 sections how these artists have investigated and reinvented the histories and cultural legacies of the region.

Its curator, Inés Katzenstein, pointed out in the note that the artists “have established a dialogue with the past as a means of repairing histories of violence, reconnecting with undervalued cultural legacies and strengthening relationships of kinship and belonging.”
