Inter-American Review: Panel Conversation with Fernando Bryce and Nicole Franchy

“It's quite stunning how quick and creative was the process,” says Aimé Iglesias Lukin, director and chief curator of art at Americas Society, about Peruvian-born artists Fernando Bryce (b. 1965) and Nicole Franchy (b. 1977), who on the occasion of Americas Society’s 60th anniversary were invited to curate Inter-American Review, an intervention of Americas Society’s archives.

Through their thought-provoking drawings and collages, techniques that define their usual art practices, the artists review and respond to Americas Society's history, offering new interpretations and perspectives by selecting, commenting, and reinterpreting materials to highlight key moments of the institution's six decades of cultural programs. This creative timeline is an ongoing project that will grow and develop as new layers of history are uncovered throughout the show.

Inter-American Review is part of Art at Americas Society, dedicated to important artists from Latin America, and is being presented in Americas Society Library and Archives exhibition space from January 29, 2025 through August 1, 2026.
