Ayarkut is an international cultural organization honoring the voices of artists who respond to the social and political challenges of our time. We see contemporary art as a catalyst for changing the world.
Foundation strategy is based on the idea of “unhomed” and support of native-led and indigenous voices.
The foundation programs aim to include participants into the international art market by support of an international selection board, partnerships and exchanges with non-profit organizations and galleries from the USA, Europe and Latin America.
Award & Annuale are two milestones that sum up the year's work of Ayarkut.
Annuale is a yearly interdisciplinary event. Including both research and exhibition projects Annuale will become a space for discussion and exchange between art professionals worldwide. Combining discussions, exhibitions, and research, Annuale will present pressing issues of/for local community or certain excluded groups which have right to be seen and heard.
Award is a celebration of contemporary art artists’ initiatives. Each year Ayarkut will encourage emerging artists and experimental projects.
Award provides production support for solo exhibitions in Latin American and international museums, professional development for artist-run organisations and fellowships for art professionals.
