A new chapter for social museology.
Arts Connection Foundation announces that its founder, Andreína Fuentes Angarita, joins the ATK International Council as a Diamond Member — a foundational commitment to the Trans Queer Archive (ATK) at Museo C.A.V. La Neomudéjar, Madrid.
This is a concrete action: it enables the hiring of a professional archivist, provides sustainability to the fundraising program, and builds a new structure for the new museologies that La Neomudéjar stands for.
Alongside this, we announce the donation of the Divas de Venezuela archive and the triptych Transdesicion to Museo La Neomudéjar — works born as resistance in Venezuela that now become part of a European institution dedicated to preserving the memory others prefer to forget.
From Caracas to Miami. From Miami to Madrid. The same demand, thirty years later.

How do you write the history of those who were forced into silence?
The Divas de Venezuela archive is far more than paper. It is a testament to resistance — to vigils held, to fights for identity, to the stories the system chose not to tell.
Among the works that Arts Connection Foundation will donate to Museo C.A.V. La Neomudéjar is the Triptych Transdesicion — a piece that was part of one of the first exhibitions of the Fundación de Artistas Emergentes and will now become part of the permanent collection of this institution in Madrid.
What was born as an act of resistance in Venezuela will find in Europe the preservation it deserves.

What began as a provocation has become a legacy.
In 2004, through the Fundación de Artistas Emergentes (FAE), Andreína Fuentes Angarita launched Álbum de Boda at CELARG, Caracas. It was not just art — it was a demand for citizenship at a moment when trans and queer identity in Venezuela faced its harshest challenges.
FAE understood then that to change the future, you first had to make the present visible. That conviction — born in Caracas, built on the foundations of New Museology — is the same one that drives Arts Connection Foundation today.
Thirty years later, the seed is still bearing fruit.

Save the date: May 9th, at 6 pm | “Elisa Benedetti: A Fresh Story to Rewrite”, presents the work developed by the Venezuelan photographer during her residency at the Miami Photographic Observatory (MPhO), a project centered on the women of Little Havana as bearers of memory, lived experience, and belonging.
Grounded in a practice shaped by proximity and reciprocity, Benedetti creates portraits in workplaces and within the homes of her participants, where domestic space acquires depth as both a cultural landscape and an extension of the lives it shelters. Rather than documenting a community, the artist constructs, together with her subjects, a shared space of representation in which the image emerges through relationship.
The exhibition also incorporates a questionnaire conceived by the artist and completed by those women, adding a layer of self-representation that expands the portrait into a more dialogical register. In parallel, a series of Polaroids introduces an immediate documentation of the neighborhood, forming an affective cartography that complements the project as a whole. Moving between portraiture, archive, and social observation, A Fresh Story to Rewrite offers an intimate and collective reading of Little Havana, positioning its women as active protagonists in the construction and rewriting of their own stories.
This exhibition was made possible with the support of Art Connection Foundation and the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs, the Cultural Affairs Council, the Mayor, and the Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners.
Art as Andreína’s grandmother’s table: always with an extra plate, no matter who walks in.
Artist, museologist, cultural manager, collector — but above all, someone who decided that no was not an acceptable answer.
In her conversation with Coexpace she speaks about what it means to accompany without invading, to create without imposing, and to let a community recognize itself through art.
“Art saves” — and she has spent 25 years proving it.

En el marco de la clausura de Paisaje Expandido BOTANIK en el @cculturalam , presentaré por un único día —sábado 09 de mayo, de 11:00 am a 03:00 pm (entrada libre)— TORO: mutaciones de la tonada y apuntes del llano, una nueva línea de investigación audiovisual.
TORO es una exploración sobre las transformaciones materiales y simbólicas del llano como territorio de memoria, trabajo y cultura.
A través de una secuencia de imágenes que recorren paisaje, arreo, domesticación y tecnificación animal, la pieza toma la tonada llanera —históricamente vinculada al trabajo con el ganado y a la transmisión oral del territorio— como eje para pensar sus desplazamientos contemporáneos.
Lejos de una mirada nostálgica o documental, TORO observa cómo ciertas formas de relación entre cuerpo, animal y paisaje persisten, se transforman y se reconfiguran bajo nuevas condiciones técnicas y productivas.
Entre registro y ficción, tradición y artificio, la obra propone una lectura del toro como cuerpo de memoria: un archivo vivo donde se inscriben herencia, adaptación y permanencia.
