In partnership with the Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires (Malba), Qatar Museums will present the first large-scale exhibition of Latin American art in the WANA region at the National Museum of Qatar. Curated by Maria Amalia Garcia and Issa Al Shirawi, Latinoamericano attempts to answer the following question: How do you represent or capture the diversity of a full continent through just a set of images?

Organised in five thematic sections, the exhibition will present more than 170 artworks that explore Latin America’s shared natural landscapes, the plurality of its identities, the development of its cities and urban landscapes, the strong social tensions, and the emancipatory artistic process unique to the continent.

Latinoamericano reexamines and reevaluates Latin American art within critical frameworks and regional art historical narratives, showcasing emblematic artworks closely associated with Malba’s identity. It aims to give an overview of the artistic production of a continent through works by key artists from 1900 until today through paintings, photographs, films, sculptures, installations, textiles, and popular cultural references.

The exhibition is presented as part of the Qatar Argentina and Chile 2025 Year of Culture.
