During CAN Art Fair Madrid 2026, Chilean artist Joaquín Reyes was honored with the Acquisition Award granted by Kells Art Collection for his works El fumador and Conversaciones.
The award, presented by a private collection focused on supporting emerging and experimental contemporary practices, acknowledges the consistency of his artistic language and its capacity to resonate within an expanding international context.
This recognition reinforces Reyes’s growing presence in the global art circuit and reflects the increasing interest in Latin American artists exploring new forms of representation and critical inquiry from the Global South.
