The IX Bienal de San Juan del Grabado Latinoamericano y del Caribe was held at the Arsenal de la Marina in Old San Juan from February 22 through May 30, 1991. Organized by the Instituto de Cultura Puertorriqueña, the exhibition brought together 188 artists from 19 countries and presented 292 works, reinforcing the Biennial’s position as one of the most important forums for printmaking in the Caribbean and Latin America.
The San Juan Print Biennial was first organized by the ICP in 1970 as a platform for artistic exchange and international dialogue through graphic art. Printmaking was selected because of its exceptional development in Puerto Rico, where artists had achieved a high level of technical and artistic sophistication. Over time, the Biennial became an important meeting point for artists, critics, curators, and institutions from across Latin America and the Caribbean.
For the 1991 edition, the selection and award functions were consolidated into a single international jury in an effort to improve the organization of the event and maintain a balance between artistic quality and geographic representation. The jury included prominent critics, curators, and historians from Latin America, Europe, and the United States. Although 19 countries were represented, participation remained uneven across the region, and questions about the Biennial’s structure, scope, and future direction became part of the critical discussion surrounding the event.
One of the most important developments of the IX Biennial was the acceptance of monotype as an eligible medium, leading to the creation of a dedicated prize for that category. The exhibition also expanded its size limitations, allowing works as large as approximately eight by four feet. These changes reflected a growing willingness to broaden the definition of printmaking and encourage new forms of experimentation.
