More than 65 contemporary art galleries will open their doors to the public this weekend for NODO, a three-day citywide art circuit running from June 4 through June 6.
The event, which offers free admission, features a diverse range of exhibitions across seven major neighborhoods from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
Created in 2022 and organized by Meridiano, the contemporary art circuit features a wide range of creative disciplines, including abstract painting, surrealist sculpture, experimental textiles, and digital photography. The program also includes interactive elements such as live musical sets, educational visits led by museum experts, and intimate conversations with artists.
Aimed at promoting Argentine art galleries and fostering new audiences, NODO invites local and international curators and collectors, also matching galleries from Argentine provinces with Buenos Aires art spaces to host them so they can showcase their own curated selections.
