💧 Arte que reconstruye

El 7 de marzo de 2025, una trágica inundación afectó gravemente a la comunidad artística de Bahía Blanca. Muchos artistas perdieron sus obras, talleres y materiales de trabajo.

En respuesta, MAPA Feria de Arte Contemporáneo, junto a 2Museos (Museo de Bellas Artes y MAC) y su Asociación de Amigos, organizan una subasta solidaria durante la séptima edición de la feria MAPA en Buenos Aires.

🖼️ ¿Qué se subasta?

Obras de artistas bahienses que fueron dañadas por el agua, pero que conservan un alto valor simbólico y artístico. Cada pieza es testigo de una historia, de una resistencia.

💵 ¿A dónde irán los fondos?

Todo lo recaudado será destinado a un fondo de ayuda para artistas visuales de Bahía Blanca, gestionado por la Asociación de Amigos de 2Museos. Este fondo complementa las ayudas estatales ya existentes para materiales y equipamiento, fortaleciendo la respuesta desde la sociedad civil.

🏛️ Sobre 2Museos

2Museos integra al Museo de Bellas Artes (fundado en 1931) y al Museo de Arte Contemporáneo (inaugurado en 1995, el primer MAC de Argentina). Con una historia sólida y un compromiso con la cultura regional, forman un polo clave para el arte en el sur del país.

💧 Art That Rebuilds

On March 7, 2025, a devastating flood struck the artistic community of Bahía Blanca, destroying artworks, studios, and materials.

In response, MAPA Contemporary Art Fair, together with 2Museos (Museum of Fine Arts and MAC) and their Friends Association, is organizing a solidarity auction during MAPA’s seventh edition in Buenos Aires.

🖼️ What will be auctioned?

Artworks by local Bahía Blanca artists that were damaged by the flood but still hold deep symbolic and artistic value. Each piece tells a story of survival and resilience.

💵 Where will the funds go?

All proceeds will go to a relief fund for visual artists in Bahía Blanca, managed by the Friends Association of 2Museos. The fund complements existing government support for materials and equipment, reinforcing a collective response from civil society.

🏛️ About 2Museos

2Museos brings together the Museum of Fine Arts (founded in 1931) and the Museum of Contemporary Art (inaugurated in 1995, the first MAC in Argentina). With a rich history and a strong cultural presence, they are a key hub for southern Argentine art.
