Part of Felipe Pineda sculpture stolen from MAC Parque Forestal in Santiago

A portion of a sculpture by Chilean artist Felipe Pineda was stolen from the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo (MAC) Parque Forestal in Santiago. The work, titled "Intocables," was part of the exhibition "Dicho a Mano." The museum, part of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Chile, stated it is fully cooperating with the Policía de Investigaciones (PDI) investigation. Museum officials have contacted Pineda to offer institutional support and are working to replace the artwork in the exhibition. The institution is reviewing and improving security protocols at both its Parque Forestal and Quinta Normal locations. MAC remains open to the public Tuesday through Sunday, 10:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and the exhibition continues. The museum emphasized its commitment to safeguarding cultural heritage and maintaining public access to art.
