Post-Barcelona Gallery Weekend Route: Three Exhibitions, Three Galleries
We propose a route involving dialogue between three exhibitions in Barcelona Gallery Weekend, with visits led by the staff of the galleries. A perfect chance to explore the contemporary art scene in the city.
Barcelona Gallery Weekend is a major annual event, with more than fifty artists and some twenty galleries taking part in Barcelona and L’Hospitalet de Llobregat. Organised by Art Barcelona, this event highlights the role of galleries as places for knowledge, experimentation and meetings.
This year, thanks to the collaboration of Art Barcelona, MACBA Friends will have the chance to enjoy an exclusive guided tour visiting three exhibitions opened as part of BGW. The visit will take place the week after the event, in a more relaxed context that will allow a close-up experience, with time to listen and talk to the gallery staff at first hand.
The route will include:
— RocioSantaCruz, with La campana cósmica y el lago que respira, an exhibition of Dionis Escorsa that critically revisits 19-century middle-class landscape design thinking to create a fictional autobiography framed within the Catalan patriarchal legacy.
— Bombon Projects, with an exhibition of Eva Fàbregas. Working with soft and malleable materials, Fàbregas’ practice embraces tactile engagement, physical intimacy, sensorial relation and multiple forms of somatic experimentation with and through objects.
— Dilalica, with Glossia (algunes urgències), a shared exhibition of Ariadna Guiteras and Lauren Gault, who have constructed a space in which the visual, the historical and the speculative converge.
Each visit will be led by the staff of the gallery in question, who will offer a closer look at the work of curating and the artists’ creative processes.
