Retiro stands out as a residential and commercial neighborhood, but it has also always historically been a hub for art to emerge. During the tour, we will explore the neighborhood’s connection to local art while tracing the history of Argentine art from the 20th century to the present day. We will visit contemporary and modern art spaces, discover new artists, and admire stunning exhibitions.
At each gallery, I will explain the exhibition we are viewing and introduce the artists, while also highlighting key moments in Argentine art history and interesting facts about the neighborhood.
This tour is unique because it offers travelers a closer and more refreshing way to experience the history of Argentine art. Whether you are a collector looking to buy art, an artist, a curious explorer, or an art enthusiast eager to uncover hidden artistic gems in the city, this tour is perfect for you.
