History
The Panamanian Institute of Art (Panarte) was founded in 1962 as a non-profit institution dedicated to promoting Panamanian art. In 1983 it became the Museum of Contemporary Art of Panama (MAC Panama), a private entity paid for by companies and art lovers.
At its foundation, in 1962, the Panamanian Institute of Art, operated in rented premises and, in addition to art exhibitions, presented plays, concerts and films by renowned directors. Despite not having its own facilities, it had a large number of exhibitions by renowned Panamanian and Latin American artists, receiving a work from each exhibitor as a donation. In this way, it was creating a valuable collection, but without its own shelter.
In 1983, the Panarte board of directors decided to look for walls for the Collection, so that it could continue to grow in size and excellence. A great campaign was started, where many people and companies contributed. With what was contributed in addition to a loan from the Panama Savings Bank, it was possible to buy and remodel the old Masonic Temple located in Ancón, in the Former Panama Canal Zone. In this way, it was possible to give walls to the permanent collection and the Museum of Contemporary Art, belonging to Panarte, was created.
The transformation process was carried out by Coqui Calderón and Graciela de Eleta who received the Order of Vasco Núñez de Balboa as recognition.
