Pueblo Garzón (AFP) – A town in sleepy rural Uruguay may not be the most obvious location for an international art festival, but Pueblo Garzon has big ambitions to join the world’s cultural hotspots. More than 20 artists from countries including Brazil, Singapore, South Korea and the United States took part in the three-day CAMPO Artfest in late December. The 8th edition of the event, created by American photographer Heidi Lender, drew around 6,000 visitors to the town with fewer than 200 residents.
