BIENALSUR 2021

On July 8, this new edition began with the exhibition Listening and the Winds, presented at the Museum of Fine Arts in Salta. With the co-curatorship of Andrea Fernández and Inka Gressel, the exhibition amalgamates an intercultural and interdisciplinary dialogue with artisan women from indigenous peoples settled in the Chaco of Salta. Art and crafts in a mixture without limits.

Art, crafts, identity, territory, commitment, visibility, creation, memory ... Listening and the winds awaken emotions and ask questions at the launch of this Bienalsur that surprises from its first step on a tour that is projected through 23 countries, with more of four hundred invited artists, as its architects, Anibal Jozami, rector of the Tres de Febrero University (Untref) and Diana Wechsler, general director and artistic director of an event that defies its own limits in each edition, enthusiastically explain.
