Lectures: Tots devant l’espectacle d’un teatre de titelles (All in front of a puppet show)*

*Quote from Eulàlia Grau in the magazine Nueva Lente, no. 84, April 1979.
finished
Eulàlia Grau "Cigarreta (Etnografia)", 1973

Eulàlia Grau’s work makes for uncomfortable reading for the society around it, being a form of political intervention on the context and ideological framework that supports it: one that exposes both the tricks and contradictions. Coinciding with the presentation of Eulàlia’s work in the exhibition I Have Never Painted Golden Angels, MACBA invites you to reflect on some of the issues raised by the work. Miguel Morey proposes a political reflection on our ‘consumerist society’ and Santiago López Petit considers the viability of a critical practice based on the denunciation of its time.
