#PORQUENOMEVES
#PorQueNoMeVes is a project to expand and make visible art made by women organized by MIA ART COLLECTION, led by its Founder and Director, Alejandra Castro Rioseco, in collaboration with ARTEINFORMADO @arteinformado . More than 300 women of 23 nationalities responded to the online appeal and, for this March 8, on the occasion of International Women’s Day, we have selected 15 of them for this curatorial piece that is available now for you to see inside our MIA AnyWhere Virtual Museum.
During February 11 and 24, 2021, any female artist in the world, directly or through her gallery, was invited to participate for free with one of her works in #PorqueNoMeVes by MIA ART COLLECTION. The hashtag of the call presents a double reading: On the one hand, it works as a questioning or questioning of the invisibility of women in art and, at the same time, it acts as an exhortation or appeal to see the work of this women creators.
The call has brought together the work of more than 300 women from 23 countries (United States, Cuba, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Bolivia, Colombia, Venezuela, Argentina, Uruguay, Ecuador, Peru, United Kingdom, Holland, Germany, Ukraine, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania, France, Italy, Portugal and Spain). Now, on the occasion of the International Women’s Day, we publish this curatorial piece with a selection of 15 of them, curated by Natalia Alonso Arduengo @natalia_alar
The exhibition is available NOW at the MIA Anywhere Virtual Museum, strongly committed to collecting and making the work of women artists visible and which currently brings together more than 1,000 works. During these days, we will present you the work of these women, but you can now go to miaanywhere.com as well as arteinformado.com to see this incredible collaboration.
Inside the ME hotel Dubai, designed by female architect Zaha Hadid, Alejandra Castro Rioseco hosted a breakfast meeting celebrating the role of women in the art world.
Every work of art demands from us thought, imagination, affection, challenging the viewer with different levels of demands.

Levitating in the Salon
On http://www.miaanywhere.com/
24/01/2021 – 07/02/2021
Levitating in the Salon refers to exploring an alternative world ungoverned by the laws that bind us to reality, a world beyond the laws of physics or society’s many unwritten rules. Levitating immerses us in the magical and occasionally risky realm of dreams and visions foreign to a comfortable salon. In the context of 2020 and 2021, amidst the coronavirus pandemic where “quarantine” and “isolation” have become part of our vernacular, many have realized that physical boundaries cannot restrain their creative spirits.
We will be conducting an interview with all six Chechen artists from this week’s exhibition: @luisasoipi.jpg @asiya.sheshani @elonasaidoul @milana.alaro @asyaumarova @hedadaism alongside MIA Art Collection founder, Alejandra Castro and @noxchisurt founder and Mehkari curator, @anitayoloswagmoni . We hope to see you there! Please RSVP in order to receive the Zoom meeting link.
This week at MIA Anywhere, we are delighted to bring a new and exciting exhibition to the virtual landscape: Mehkari

Our MIA Anywhere virtual museum is hosting a new exhibition called “The great female wave” and we are presenting these incredible artists from Japan, Indonesia and Pakistán:
We invite you to have a look inside our virtual museum on the MIA Anywhere virtual museum website (www.miaanywhere.com) so you can experience, in virtual reality, our exhibition called ‘The exploration of the female existence. Part I’, where you can see for one week the work of Daniela Torrente from Brazil, (@dani.eorendjiantorrente), Lara Maltz from Argentina (@larashkasha) and Elizabeth Casasola from México (@eliiiicasasola). We would upload more about these artists in the upcoming days, so you can know more about their perspective, technique and point of view.
