Latinismo Art & Education is an initiative dedicated to cultural management, the promotion of Latin American art, and the development of solidarity networks among artists and cultural spaces. Our work is rooted in self-management and a critical perspective that challenges the historical, aesthetic, and narrative stereotypes associated with Latin America.

The project began in Bogotá as a community art initiative based on principles of action research and collaborative interventions in public spaces. Since then, Latinismo has evolved into a space for collective exploration and creation, bringing together artists and cultural managers to generate social impact through art.

Today, we are based in the United States, with New York serving as our gateway to the world. From here, we strive to create new opportunities and spaces that connect the diverse voices of Latin American art with a global audience, fostering dialogue, visibility, and cultural exchange.

Latinismo Art & Education was founded by Lyz Torres, a visual artist, curator, cultural manager, and researcher in arts education and public education policy, and Laura Amaya, an architect, urban photographer, cultural manager. With standalone projects about sustainable architecture focusing in the importance of plants for humans, stylish and music.

At Latinismo, art is a space for encounter, resistance, and transformation. From our roots in Bogotá to our international collaborations, we continue to build a network that celebrates and redefines what it means to be Latin American.
