Días de Arte Presents Eighth Edition Under Theme “Todo EScultura”

Bolivia's art scene is gearing up for the eighth edition of Días de Arte, a significant cultural event set to take place on August 22-23. This year's iteration, themed “Todo EScultura” (Everything is Sculpture), will spotlight the art of sculpture, showcasing the work of 16 national and international artists.

The event, hosted at the Espacio Cultural Búho Blanco, promises an impressive display of over 300 new works created in the last six months. Attendees can expect to see pieces from renowned Bolivian sculptors such as Juan Bustillos, the event's general director, alongside Yefrin Acuña, Noemí Oropeza, and Oscar ‘Ozzo’ Soza. The exhibition also includes painters like Magenta Murillo and Jamir Johanson, and features international talent including Chilean sculptor Mauricio Guajardo, a recent winner of the Bienal del Chaco.

A key aspect of Días de Arte is its commitment to accessibility and public engagement. Admission is free, designed to encourage broad participation and create a direct dialogue between artists and visitors. This inclusive approach aims to bring contemporary artistic creation closer to society. The event will also recognize cultural promoters Cecilia Kenning and Percy Añez, collectors María Paula Muñoz and Toya Sauto, and journalist Linda González for their contributions to cultural promotion.

With each edition, Días de Arte has expanded its reach, and this year continues that tradition by offering a diverse range of styles and techniques. The presentation of inéditas (unpublished/new) pieces is generating particular excitement among art enthusiasts and collectors alike, highlighting the event's role as a vital meeting point for artists, patrons, and the public.
