Academic consultancy and investigation: María Laura Rosa
Proa curated by: Cecilia Jaime – Manuela Otero
Proa21 curated by: Irana Douer – Karina Granieri – Patricia Rizzo – Cristina Schiavi – Larisa Zmud
Organized by: Fundación Proa

In 2020 (date to be confirmed) CREAR MUNDOS [MAKING WORLDS] will inaugurate in the exhibition rooms of Fundación Proa and Proa21. Encompassing the work of more than sixty artists from different generations and artistic practices, the selection of works recreates the history of Proa’s exhibitions, and offers a walk through these artists’ great contribution to the history of art.

Thus, CREAR MUNDOS presents new geographies that sweep existing borders away and reveal both the unique and global nature of the problems that extend across the experience of women in art.

With the academic advice of María Laura Rosa and the curatorship of Cecilia Jaime and Manuela Otero, CREAR MUNDOS spans from the second half of the 20th century to the present day, covering contemporary techniques and supports such as video, photography, installation and performance.

CREAR MUNDOS will inaugurate once the activities officially resume.

Proa and Proa21 have invited the artists Sigismond de Vajay and Juan Sorrentino to curate the exhibition Cabinet of Curiosities, an unprecedented glance at the vastness of the international art collection of the FRAC - Regional Funds of Contemporary Art in France. With a highly international selection, the artist-curators offer us a tour of radical works that account for new pioneering artistic practices in various countries. The exhibition takes as its starting point the cabinet de curiosités and presents an eclectic series of images, installations, sounds, drawings, paintings, sculptures, videos, and modern and contemporary objects.

Organized according to diverse criteria, the works establish unexpected dialogues with each other, thus displaying a visual atlas of contemporary creation today.
