The Biennale aims to build bridges between artists from different countries and traditions, using colour and technique as a common language. It is organised by the Asociación Sociocultural AnimArte, under the direction of Luciano Colucci. It runs from 13 November to 19 December 2026.
On Friday 13 November, it begins at 17:30 with the opening ceremony and awards presentation in the Sala de Conferencias Juan Ismael conference hall. The event will last until 19:30.
On Saturday 14 November, from 10:30 to 12:30 at the Centro de Arte Juan Ismael, artists from Mexico, Italy and the Canary Islands will work in pairs on a large-format canvas. In the afternoon, two individual demonstrations will take place in the conference hall: from 17:30 to 18:20 by a master artist from Mexico, and from 18:30 to 19:20 by a master artist from Italy.
On Sunday, 15 November, outdoor painting is on the programme from 10:00 to 14:00, open to participants. The location on Fuerteventura has not yet been finalised; the Biennale intends to show the invited artists various spots around the island. In the afternoon, two masters from the Canary Islands will demonstrate their techniques, from 17:30 to 18:20 and from 18:30 to 19:20, at a venue yet to be confirmed.
