ABOUT WILDPALMS
A place for contemporary art from Latin America and the Americas in Düsseldorf.
wildpalms exhibits contemporary art from Latin America alongside artists from Canada and the United States.
Created by Jorge Sanguino and Alexandra Meffert, the programme centres on artistic research, social practices, environmental questions and sustainability.
Curatorial practice
Our exhibitions grow from sustained curatorial research, text production and engagement with critical discourse. They amplify the voices of artists and art professionals working across North, Central and South America.
Through exhibitions, conversations and research, wildpalms seeks to transform cultural practices, current narratives and established patterns of thought. The programme has helped introduce artists including Karen Paulina Biswell, Felipe Castelblanco and Mauricio Limón to institutions and collectors in Germany.
The name wildpalms comes from William Faulkner’s 1939 book The Wild Palms.
Movement & wellbeing
Alexandra’s Light Space Movement is a research-driven and holistic approach to mindfulness and natural movement. It expands the wildpalms universe through the intersection of movement, wellbeing and art.
Writing & research
Jorge Sanguino brings expertise in photography and Latin American art. Through Art of the Americas, he develops essays, podcasts and articles published across independent art media.
