Housed in a former private house
built in 1911, the Americas Society's gallery concentrates on
artists from all countries of North and South America. The Society
mounts about four exhibitions per year, ranging from historical
shows that concentrate on pre-Columbian Aztec and Mayan works, to
exhibitions that trace the roots of early 20th century modernists
such as Pissaro and Tamayo
The Society also presents a
wide range of programs that feature readings and concerts from works
by authors and artists from Latin America, Canada and the Caribbean
