Company Profile

Company Description:

Pan American Art Projects was established in 2001 with the mission to exhibit and promote established and emerging artists from North, Central and South America, providing a context for dialogue between the various regions. 

The gallery started operating in Dallas in 2004 with the exhibit “80 Years of Cuban Art”, which included important works by most of the principal Cuban artists during that period of time. We opened to the Wynwood location in Miami in 2006, where we produced large exhibits like “Ferrari and Bony”, with catalog introduction by Luis Camnitzer, and “Denarrations”, curated by Gerardo Mosquera, which included works, among others, by Aernout Mik, Vibeke Tandberg, and Tracey Snelling (the video by Mik was being shown concurrently at MoMA).
 
We represent a strong roster of contemporary artists of the Americas and hold a collection of important works from Cuba, Argentina, the U.S. and the Caribbean. Our programming reflects these complementary arenas providing a comprehensive historical context for contemporary tendencies in the visual arts from these regions. We work closely with our artists to broaden their exposure to opportunities through various forms of sponsorship and exhibition collaborations with cultural institutions locally, nationally and internationally. They have received several awards, such as the Leone d’Oro at the Venice Biennale (Ferrari), the “Ellies” (Sandra Ramos and Carlos Estevez); the Pollock-Krasner Award (Snelling); “Artist of the Year” in Cuba (Toirac); French Republic Cultural Award (Duval Carrie’); National Cultural Award, Cuba (R. Diago); Salon de la Mujer, Museo de La Plata, Argentina (Sardi).
