Pinta Miami seeks to support artistic practice and encourage collecting, through new and established awards.
In its twelfth edition, the EFG Latin America Art Award, sponsored by our main supporter, encourages the production of emerging Latin American artists, pre-selected through a jury at contemporary art fairs in Latin America throughout the year.
On the other hand, the NEXT Prize will be awarded for the first time, for the stand that achieves the most cohesive and comprehensive dialogue of the practices of the artists represented.
As a crowning note, Pinta Miami will present a series of seven Private and Public Collections Awards, from important and prestigious Ibero-American collectors, from both sides of the Atlantic.
The Prize aims to promote the production of visual arts from the continent and regional fairs among international collectors.
