From March 17 to 20, 2027, the third edition of Pinta Panamá Art Week will take place. It will present Panama as a meeting point for contemporary art in Central America and its dialogue with other regions of the continent. Under the artistic direction of Irene Gelfman and with a curatorial committee, a public and curated program will activate the city over four consecutive days through exhibitions, tours, talks, and cultural experiences, inviting audiences to discover its local artistic strength and recognize the connections that run across the region.
Territorios en conexión brings together artists from different parts of the region who explore territory as a network of relationships in constant construction. Through video, textile, and the body, the works trace connections between memory, identity, and community, opening a space for dialogue between the Panamanian art scene and the regional context.
Five days of art and culture across the city. During Pinta Panamá Art Week, institutions, foundations, and galleries participate with a special program of exhibitions, tours, conversations, and experiences that invite visitors to discover the local art scene.
In the second edition of Pinta Panamá Art Week, institutions, museums, cultural centers, and contemporary art galleries from across the city participate in a key synergy that promotes and gives visibility to Central American culture.
The FORO of Pinta Panamá Art Week 2026, a program curated by Irene Gelfman, reaffirms its commitment to reflection on Central American contemporary art. This edition broadens its regional perspective and positions Panama as a meeting point between Central America and the world — a territory where networks are woven, ideas circulate, and bridges are built between diverse scenes, as well as between the North and the South of the continent. Through the participation of international guests and local leaders, the FORUM proposes a space for exchange that strengthens the region’s presence within the global art landscape.
Pinta Panamá Art Week transforms the city into a meeting point for art: galleries, artists, and scenes that capture its unique energy. Explore in images the moments, works, and protagonists that shape this edition.
The collaboration between the two institutions will promote cultural platforms, professional networking events and opportunities for dialogue to promote Latin American art and raise its international profile.
