Saltfineart in collaboration with Coastline College Art Gallery is proud to present Playground, August 28 – October 17, 2024, an exhibition curated around the theme of play as a radical act. Play as a radical act traces a thread through Latin Contemporary art and beyond, with works in which the initial read is one of whimsy with the skillful use of vibrant colors, pop-cultural icons, and visual metaphors that hold profound narratives of freedom, identity, social and political climates, and emotion.

Saltfineart is a global-focused fine art gallery established in 2009 with Latin Contemporary at its core. The artists in Playground represent 15 years of presenting works that bring together cutting-edge concept with skillful execution. With 10 different countries represented from El Salvador to Cuba, Peru to the United Kingdom, Playground highlights a worldwide community of artists.
