With an emotional introductory video, one by one the five women honored with the Latin America Lifetime Awards thanked for receiving this recognition from Lifetime and shared their thoughts about being outstanding, successful women and an example for their female peers around the world .
Possessing great talent and an unparalleled charisma, the plastic artist Marta Minujín was the first winner to give her word and expressed her vision of female art today.
“We have come so far that the participation of women in art is going to change the history of universal art a lot. There are so many fine women artists who have entered the art world and changed history. Before, people used to say ‘she is a woman’s art’. But not now. Now no one even makes a difference, because art has no gender, ”explained the 79-year-old artist, who also commented that she first married art and now she will marry immortality.
