Indigenous and Amazonian Art Today
Ancestral Avant-Garde
A cultural exploration of the Amazon, from myth to the contemporary.
The Amazon is not just a place — it is a way of being
Contemporary Amazonian art creates a space of encounter in which ancestral knowledge and present-day consciousness enter into dialogue, a place where
heritage shapes the present and tradition transforms into avant-garde.
A Bridge Between Worlds
Contemporary Amazonian art unfolds in the creative tension between tradition and renewal—a dynamic dialogue between cosmovisional heritage and cosmopolitan present.
At the heart of this artistic practice, memory, spirituality, and cultural identity converge to form a powerful new language of sight and sensation.
Its artists draw from the collective memory of their ancestors — a space where ancestral knowledge is not only preserved, but continuously reinterpreted and brought into our contemporary world with immediate visual intensity.
A Living Cultural Dialogue
This art serves as both testimony and revelation: it opens deep insights into the pulsating soul of Amazonia, transforming the Amazon into an experiential realm of spirit and creativity, a place where ancestral knowledge shapes the future, and artistic practice becomes an act of cultural continuity and self-determination.
Contemporary Amazonian art forms a vital bridge: it connects the world of the ancestors with our global present, the spiritual with the earthly, Indigenous perspectives with contemporary sensibility, offering us a renewed vision of this unique cultural landscape.
Our Curatorial Vision
Our selection brings together Indigenous artists from different communities and Amazonian artists from various cities across the region.
Some are heirs to millennia-old visual traditions and a profound cosmology; others express their Amazonian identity through urban experience and a global perspective.
All of them share an honest, powerful, and contemporary gaze on a territory that is both physical and mythic.

Where memory creates and creation remembers
Indigenous and Amazonian art manifests itself as a continuous circle of belonging and becoming. It is an inheritance and a new beginning, a space where ancestral wisdom shapes contemporary vision, and creation carries the resonance of memory.
In the Amazonian worldview, boundaries between past, present, and future, between humans, nature, and spirit, are not static but fluid, reflecting an understanding of art as a living process.
This reciprocal act transforms tradition into a creative force that renews identity and fosters dialogue between the ancient and the modern, the local and the global.
