Stellweg was a pivotal figure in the Latin American art world, working mainly between Mexico City and New York. The founder and editor-in-chief of the bilingual art magazine Artes Visuales, she went on to become an early promoter of Latin American artists including Liliana Porter, Ana Mendieta and Luis Camnitzer through her New York galleries Stellweg-Seguy Gallery and Carla Stellweg Latin American & Contemporary Art.

Art Toronto, Canada's largest art fair, returns to the Metro Toronto Convention Centre this week (23-26 October) with more than 100 galleries participating. Now in its 26th edition, the fair is launching , a new curated section focused on Latin American art. The move comes amid the on-again, off-again trade war that American president Donald Trump set off between Canada and the US, bringing uncertainty but also diversification, with the Canadian commercial sector signalling intent to build new connections.
