Pinta Lima 2025: A New Chapter for Peru’s Contemporary Art Fair

This April, Pinta Lima returns for its 12th edition from April 24 to 27, 2025, at Casa Prado in Miraflores, Lima, Peru. Formerly known as Pinta PArC – Perú Arte Contemporáneo, the fair is rebranded as Pinta Lima, reinforcing its identity as the only contemporary art fair in Peru and establishing Lima as a central hub in the Latin American contemporary art scene.

This transformation reflects Pinta’s commitment to elevating Lima as a regional art capital, hosting a fair distinguished by experimental programming and curated gallery selections, and bridging the city’s cultural wealth with global influences that shape contemporary art.
