Fundación Proa is a private art center with the permanent support of Tenaris – Techint organization, a world leader in the production of seamless pipes. With an annual program of temporary exhibitions and the organization of seminars, courses, conferences and concerts, Fundación Proa is -since its inauguration- an unavoidable point of reference for the arts in the City of Buenos Aires. Its program, focused on the dissemination of the great artistic movements of the 20th and 21st centuries, includes a diversity of current proposals such as photography, video, design, electronic music and the permanent implementation of special projects.

As part of its founding proposal, Proa develops educational and exchange programs with prestigious cultural institutions. The three-story building has four exhibition halls, a multimedia auditorium, a specialized bookstore, a restaurant with a terrace, as well as spaces for action and openness to the public and a transparent façade to communicate experiences from the interior to the neighborhood. Fundación Proa carries out an intensive activity with the community through its education team, integrating the institution's activities with schools and educational entities in the area. Proa is also in charge of the culture program of the Techint Organization (TO) at a global level. With close to 60,000 employees worldwide, the TO is the most important industrial group in Argentina.
