Summary note

This 5th edition of the Biennale presented a total of 72 art works (12 of each participating Central American country) representing the best of the region's contemporary art. The international jury represented by María Lovino (Colombia), Mariangela Capuzzo (USA) and Walo Araujo (Panamá) granted the "Tiahcuilo" prizes to 3 projects that mixed art and politics: a reconciliation proposition between the Sandinista Army and the Nicaragua Contra for the pacification of Nicaragua, a critic of the social exclusion provoked by the Free Trade Agreements and a reflection regarding national identity in the globalization era. No catalogue was published for the previous 4th bienal (Panama, 2004).
