Pinta BAphoto is a cultural platform dedicated to the promotion, dissemination and commercialization of modern and contemporary photography. More than 40 galleries from all over the world participate in each edition of the fair, and sections are curated by prestigious figures of Latin American art.
Artista homenaje
Curador Francisco Medail
En el marco de una nueva edición de la feria, Pinta BAphoto anuncia a Boleslaw Senderowicz como artista homenaje 2023. Senderowicz fue un fotógrafo pionero en el mundo de la moda local que trabajó durante años para la revista Claudia de Editorial Abril. Allí supo construir un estilo propio caracterizado por la puesta en escena de modelos sofisticadas en escenarios urbanos y poco frecuentes para este tipo de producciones. Senderowicz también formó parte del grupo La Carpeta de los Diez, junto a Annemarie Heinrich, George Friedman y Juan Di Sandro, entre otros pioneros que fueron homenajeados por la feria en ediciones anteriores. En ese sentido, el homenaje a Senderowicz traza una continuidad en la política curatorial de la feria, además de poner en valor uno de los archivos fotográficos más importantes de la cultura impresa del siglo XX.
Wunderkammer
Hilario. Artes Letras Oficios
Since 2015, Wunderkammer has been the sector of the fair dedicated to heritage photography.

Hilario, the art and antiques gallery, antiquarian bookstore and auction house, presents in each edition of Pinta BAphoto a photographic catalog that seeks to address the arts, letters and trades.

BAphoto presents LiveTalk, a series of conversations reflecting with local and international artists, curators, collectors, gallery owners, and museum directors, dedicated to collaboratively investigating different aspects of photography and contemporary art.
Guided Tours
Este programa propone una aproximación a la feria a través de recorridos guiados. En cada visita se explorarán una selección de obras bajo la mirada de los fotógrafos y fotógrafas quienes expondrán los usos tradicionales y contemporáneos de la fotografía desde diversos enfoques.
Para ello se prioriza una selección especial de obras, y se profundiza sobre diversos temas tales como: los géneros artísticos en la fotografía, sus cualidades técnicas, las nuevas materiales y medios que son parte de la fotografía contemporánea y la apreciación del valor de aquellas imágenes vinculadas a discursos tradicionales pero desde un enfoque actual.
