At the Casa Macedonio Graz Cultural Center and Museum, the art exhibition “Vinča – Tiwanaku – Lepenski Vir” was officially opened — a joint international project by artists Aleksandra Mikarić from Serbia and Fabricio Lara from Bolivia. This exhibition represents the second part of a traveling series that connects the Neolithic cultures of the Balkans and the Andes through contemporary artistic expression.
Following its premiere in Bolivia, the exhibition continues its journey through Latin America — after Argentina, the next stop will be Peru.
Through paintings, installations, and visual narratives, the artists explore archetypal symbols and forms from the Vinča and Lepenski Vir sites in Serbia, as well as from the Tiwanaku civilization in Bolivia. The project encourages a dialogue between civilizations that share themes of spirituality, identity, and universal cultural codes.
The exhibition invites visitors to reflect on the commonalities of ancient worlds and how they can be interpreted through contemporary art.
The host of the exhibition, Casa Macedonio Graz, is located in a 19th-century colonial house that was once the home of renowned journalist Macedonio Graz. Today, this space serves as one of the key cultural centers of northern Argentina, known for its art programs and international collaborations.
The exhibition “Vinča – Tiwanaku – Lepenski Vir” will be open to the public until the end of June, offering a unique opportunity to connect distant worlds through art and to highlight the similarities among ancient cultures that have shaped humanity.
