This is an event in which sculptors from different countries come together to create works in public spaces in front of a live audience. What would be the proper term for "Encuentro"? Encounter seems too literal. I am inclined to use workshop.

International Sculpture Symposium
This is an ongoing symposium (see references), don't know if it's the actual one being referred to in your text:
"The *International Sculpture Symposium* movement was spearheaded by Karl Prantl in Austria in 1959. This initiative grew from the need to facilitate communication and exchange between members of the international sculpture community. . . .
Sculptors from around the world joined together to produce a permanent public artwork from local stone, a dynamic which would provide the model for many symposia to follow.
Since then international sculpture symposia have been held in numerous towns and cities around the world, including Lindabrunn, Austria and Hagi, YamaguchiHagi, Japan (a town known for its pottery)"
In September 2011, there will be a meeting in Argentina:
"Various institutions organize an *International Sculpture Symposium* that will be held in a northern city of the Argentinian Republic. The symposium will take place in the days from the 5th to the 15th of September 2011."

Thanks, gallagy2. I'm not sure if this is related to the "encuentro" described or not, but worth checking.

Encuentro Internacional de Escultura en Madera-Piedra-Hierro de Rosario
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Encuentro Internacional de Escultura en Madera-Piedra-Hierro de Rosario ("International Meeting of Wood-Stone-Iron Sculpture in Rosario") is an artistic event celebrated every year, since 1993, in Rosario, province of Santa Fe, Argentina. It is organized by the Sculptors Association of Rosario.
This event is attended by sculptors from Argentina and a number of other countries, and lasts about a week. It is always celebrated outdoors and before the eyes of the public. The artists must work on a roughly 180×50 cm trunk, or an irregular-shaped stone over 0.25 m³, or pieces of iron, in order to create a sculpture. Stone and iron works are then placed in public places of the city.
