Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros (CPPC) and ICI award curator Pablo León de la Barra the 2012 CPPC Travel Award for Central America and the Caribbean and María del Carmen Carrión the Curatorial Residency at TEOR/éTica.
We want to expand visibility and awareness of the existing artistic practices of Central America and the Caribbean, while introducing international curators to the region to allow them to experience for themselves the strength and vitality of our modern and contemporary art. Doing so in collaboration with ICI and in honor of Virginia Pérez Ratton’s tireless work in this regard, could not make us prouder.
