Since its inception in New York in 2007, PINTA has become a most important event on the Modern and Contemporary Art calendar. The organisers have made it their mission to expand the exposure of Latin American Modern and Contemporary Art via the participation of prominent galleries, curatorial projects featuring guest artists and dialogue programmes.
With this in mind, the London season of PINTA, to be held from 3rd to 6th June, 2010, promises to be a very successful event. Approximately fifty galleries of the highest quality are expected to participate. Included in this eminent list are White Cube and Haunch of Venison.

Visitors will also be treated to a programme featuring tributes to the pioneer artists Carmen Herrera and Carlos Cruz-Diez, together with a variety of art projects and solo shows; a series of dialogues will also be presented in which the position of Latin American Art within London’s institutions will be explored.
Expectation can be measured by PINTA’s influence in the acquisition of Latin American artworks by such leading institutions as Tate Modern; the University of Essex Collection of Latin American Art; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, Madrid; Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona, (MACBA) and the Middlesborough Institute of Modern Art, (MIMA), England.
As in previous years, there will be in 2010 the opportunity throughout PINTA for those museums dedicated to Modern and Contemporary Latin American Art to acquire new artworks. This has been made possible as a result of a matching funds programme, where up to the present day, PINTA has donated $250,000, to be matched by participating museums and used to purchase Latin American artworks exhibited at the Fair.
