Museo de Arte del Tolima is inviting visitors to see ‘Pintura Cubana Contemporánea’ at Museo Mutis in Mariquita, Colombia, as part of the 31st Festival Nacional de Música. The exhibition is described as a collection from Norman Bardavid and brings together work by nine Cuban artists.
According to the museum notice, the show will be on view at Museo Mutis from 8 August to 8 September 2026. The announcement places the exhibition within the festival setting, linking the presentation of contemporary Cuban painting to one of Mariquita’s major cultural events.
The source material does not list the names of the participating artists, but it does make clear that the exhibition is framed as a survey of current Cuban painting. By identifying the project as a collection assembled by Bardavid, the announcement points to a curatorial or collecting perspective that shapes how the works will be seen together.
Museo de Arte del Tolima, based in Ibagué, is circulating the invitation to the public through its own channels, while the venue named in the announcement is Museo Mutis in Mariquita. The notice also specifies the festival context, but it does not provide additional programming details beyond the exhibition itself.
‘Pintura Cubana Contemporánea’ will run for one month, beginning on 8 August and closing on 8 September 2026. The exhibition’s placement at Museo Mutis during the 31st Festival Nacional de Música gives visitors a defined window to view the collection in Mariquita.
