La Nueva Fábrica is a non-profit contemporary art space committed to empowering communities through art. We do so through exhibitions, public programs, educational projects, residencies, and multidisciplinary activities in our space in Antigua, Guatemala, and through international partnerships. Recent exhibitions include Margarita Azurdia: A Universe, Documented, curated by Rossina Cazali (2023-2024); Hellen Ascoli: Cien Terras, curated by Amara Antilla and traveling from the Contemporary Arts Center in Cincinnati (2022-2023); the XXIII Bienal de Arte Paiz (2023); and Regina José Galindo’s first institutional survey in the Americas, Grito, curated by Mara Juracán (2022).
We center our mission on:
- Providing a multidisciplinary platform for the advancement of the arts in Guatemala
- Supporting artistic experimentation, critical thinking, and social justice
- Respecting Guatemala's linguistic, cultural, and spiritual diversity by advocating for multiple knowledge systems
- Facilitating exchanges between local and international artistic communities
- Creating new experimental pedagogical opportunities through art and visual culture
- Providing access to visual arts for diverse communities
- Cultivating a shared space as a meeting point for empathy and respect for all
