Proyecto Tesis · Curatorial Committee: Caridad Botella – Ana María Escallón · MD Arte y Cultura Direction: Andrea Walker Posada
60 years shaping new languages of art
For six decades, the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Minuto de Dios – MAC has believed in the transformative power of art and in the talent of new generations.
Proyecto Tesis was born from that conviction: opening the museum's doors to young artists and giving them the opportunity to present their graduation projects to the public, taking a first step toward their professional future.
As part of the MAC's 60th anniversary, this edition received 35 submissions from different regions of the country. After a rigorous selection process, the Curatorial Committee chose 15 projects that are now part of this show. Each one represents a particular outlook on the present, an exploration of new languages, and a commitment to the future of art in Colombia.
We thank the participating students, the universities and academies that support their education, and the professors who make these processes possible. Their talent and commitment give meaning to this program.
Proyecto Tesis: 60 years believing in the art yet to come.
