Global cultural updates: Art exhibitions and archaeological concerns

Various cultural and artistic events are taking place across Latin America and Europe. In Chile, artist Paula Valenzuela Antúnez returns to Santiago with ‘¿Qué sueña la muerte?’, an exhibition of large-format abstract paintings exploring spirituality and transformation at Galería CIMA.

In Argentina, the collective exhibition ‘Escenas posibles de un afecto’ opens in Resistencia, featuring textile works by María Rosa Mamana, Lides Samudio, Mariana Stegmayer, and Florencia Vivas that map the cultural connections between the Chaco and Paraguay. Meanwhile, in Peru, technical reports indicate significant damage to the Paredones de Nasca archaeological site due to unauthorized heavy machinery and excavations.

In the United Kingdom, the exhibition ‘Pedro y su paisaje’ in La Laguna features approximately 70 works from the Recrearte Collective, creating a dialogue between the literature of poet Pedro García Cabrera and contemporary visual arts. In the United States, Cernuda Arte in Miami presents a retrospective of Cuban artist Gina Pellón, showcasing over 20 works that highlight her vibrant expressionist style and legacy in exile.
