The Altos de Chav\u00f3n Art Gallery has hosted Season 8 of IND\u00d3MITA, the \u00abopen doors\u00bb platform that has established itself as a key driver for elevating and promoting contemporary Dominican art and fashion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Successfully inaugurated last Friday, November 14th, this exhibition is not just a showcase of design, but a vibrant declaration of identity and collaboration, open to the public until December 2nd, 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Founded by Karina Cortorreal in 2021, IND\u00d3MITA's mission is bold and essential: to connect fashion designers, artists, and artisans to create unique collections that serve as a vehicle for Dominican culture. Operating under a thematic seasonal format, the eighth edition draws its deep inspiration from the legacy of the unforgettable visual artist Jorge Severino (1935-2020).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
