Cultural agenda of Buenos Aires 2025

From “Nadie olvida nada” to “Siete últimas canciones,” this exhibition celebrates 50 years since Guillermo Kuitca’s first exhibition at the Lirolay Gallery when he was just 13 years old. It also marks 22 years since his works were first presented at the Malba.

With a selection of 77 iconic works from his career, ranging from his well-known beds to his references to cinema and theater, Kuitca returns to the Malba 17 years later, and it is undoubtedly one of the jewels of the cultural agenda. The exhibition can be visited from March 14 to June 15.

Where: Av. Pres. Figueroa Alcorta 3415, MALBA. Tickets here.

Speaking of the intersection of disciplines and the meeting of art and theater, we cannot fail to mention Edgardo Giménez, one of the most important pop artists in Latin America.

Since the 1960s, his work transcends conventional categories and scales, establishing him as a singular figure in contemporary art history. With his project FANCY MONAS, the artist merges art and technology, with a collection of works created by an algorithm directed and trained by the artist after an exhaustive investigation and interpretation of more than 200 pieces from his personal archive. The date and location were not disclosed at the time of publication.

This year, Edgardo will not only launch a collaboration with a renowned Argentine clothing brand but will also hold an exhibition to accompany his busy schedule. The date and location were not disclosed at the time of publication.

Melisa Zulberti, the artist who represented Argentina at the Venice Biennale of Performance, will perform at the new Malba location in Puertos del Lago as part of the Non-Conventional Festival, which runs from February to April. The festival features performances, dance, music, and film in unusual formats.

On Saturday, March 22, the performance "Sobre sí mismo" was presented, a project that studies continuous transportation systems for the creation of a sculptural score that can inhabit movement. On March 30, the exhibition by Florencia Sadir, "Yendo por dentro del agua, he llegado muerta de sed," will open. This exhibition reflects on the complex relationship we establish with nature and how we connect with the land. A must-see of 2025. More info here.

Where: Alisal, Puertos, Av. de la Bahía 160, Escobar.

In April—although the exact date had not been confirmed at the time of publication—the Decorative Arts museum will host a retrospective of Argentine artist Nahuel Vecino, which will dialogue with the French salons of the palace.

"This is Theater: Eleven Experimental Scenes" is an exhibition that captures the pulse of the 2025 art agenda. This exhibition, which will be held at El Moderno, aims to understand the relationship between artistic avant-gardes and the artistic experimentation and transformation that took place in theater during two crucial moments in the second half of the 20th century.

The program will include historical and ethnographic exhibitions that highlight key figures of Argentine avant-garde theater and contemporary artists who have blurred the boundaries between disciplines like performance, music, theater, and public space art.

Where: Av. San Juan 350, Museo de Arte Moderno.
