Pinta Asunción Art Week took place over four consecutive editions, establishing itself as a key platform for contemporary art and culture in the city.
Its fourth edition, held in 2025, marked the closure of this cycle, having fulfilled its purpose as an Art Week. Throughout these years, the cultural program was curated by Irene Gelfman as Global Curator and Adriana Almada as General Curator, and featured a diverse program including exhibitions, artist studio visits, guided tours of galleries and museums, as well as a prominent FORUM with local and international specialists.
Pinta continues its journey with new Art Weeks in other cities, reaffirming its commitment to Latin American contemporary art.
After four consecutive editions, Pinta Asunción Art Week concluded its cycle in 2025, and Pinta continues to develop new Art Weeks in other cities.
The FORUM of the latest edition of Pinta Asunción Art Week 2025 seeks to bring together curators, cultural managers, artists, and key figures from the local and international scene to engage in dialogue and collective reflection on fundamental issues in art today, such as community practices, curatorship as a political act, the current state of art in the region, the art–craft dichotomy, the problem of authorship in art, and cultural management as a practice of heritage preservation.
In its 4th edition, Pinta Asunción Art Week consolidates a diverse network of cultural spaces, museums, galleries, independent centers, and artist studios, connecting the city’s contemporary pulse with its historical vitality. This key articulation drives the core expressions of Paraguayan culture, strengthening Asunción’s artistic fabric.
Pinta Asunción Art Week presents a diverse group of curators leading the exhibitions in museums, galleries, and art spaces that are part of the event. Their perspectives shape a curatorial map that fosters dialogue between artists, territories, and communities, strengthening a collaborative and plural network.
A partnership was sealed between the Development Bank of Latin America and the Caribbean (CAF) and Pinta Asunción Art Week through the signing of a significant commitment to cooperation and culture by Jorge Srur (CAF’s Representative in Paraguay and Southern Regional Manager) and Diego Costa Peuser (Global Director of Pinta).
