SUMMARY:The (In)visible Exiles
DESCRIPTION:Archivo General de la Nación de México \n  \nExile is a reality that is very difficult to make visible\, since it is\, above all\, an experience of internal uprooting. Nevertheless\, women artists\, among them the filmmakers who went into exile\, tried time and again to stage and represent their woundedness. \nFilm producer and director Tània Balló and filmmaker\, theorist and film promoter Luis E. Parés programme a film series linked to the exhibition Marta Palau: My Paths are Earthly\, with the aim of presenting three different approaches to this wound and the way it is incarnated. Thus\, through screenings\, talks and conferences\, we will generate a space for debate and reflection on these films and on other\, more contemporary ones\, which have allowed us to rediscover these works and their authors in the present day. \n  \nTània Balló Colell is a filmmaker\, writer\, cultural promoter and researcher. She is the creator and director of the project Las Sinsombrero (2014–present) and Las Anónimas. Obras sin relato en las colecciones de arte moderno de los museos españoles (Leonardo Grant for Researchers and Cultural Creators\, Fundación BBVA\, 2023). As a filmmaker\, her films El Museo Invisible (2023) and the documentary trilogy Las Sinsombrero (2015–2021) stand out. She is the author of the Las Sinsombrero trilogy (2016\, 2018\, 2022)\, of Querido Diario: hoy ha empezado la guerra (2017) and of Les Combatents. La història oblidada de les milicianes antifeixistes (2021). She is also curator of the exhibitions Jorge Semprún. El largo viaje (2024–2025)\, Las Sinsombrero (2022) and No Pasarán. 16 días Madrid 1936 (2018). \n  \nLuís E. Parés holds a PhD in Communication from the Pompeu Fabra University and is artistic director of Cineteca Matadero Madrid. He has worked as part of the programming department of the Filmoteca Española\, the editorial board of Caimán CDC and the programming committee of the Sevilla Film Festival\, and was coordinator of the RTVE programme Historia de nuestro cine. He has published the books Notes sur l’émigration-Espagne 1960. Apunts per a una pel·lícula invisible (2011) and Filmar el exilio desde Francia (2012). He has directed the short films Los conspiradores (2021) and El espectro político (2023)\, as well as the feature film La primera mirada (2023). \n  \nProgramme \n4.March 25 \n22 April 25 \n20 May 25 \n  \n \nMaría Luisa Elío in En el balcón vacío

SUMMARY:Following the Sun. Second edition
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \nSound Experiments\, Performance Formats and New Situations \n  \nTaking as its starting point the contemporary mythology derived from the Antoni Tàpies piece Mitjó [Sock] (2010)—which we understand as a gesture of disobedience and irony\, a celebration of the downtrodden and marginalised—the second edition of the series Following the Sun aims to give rise to new performative dialogues with other bodies and identities\, creating frictions with societal normativity: \n  \nThe liberation attained by artists over the last one-hundred years needs not lead us to deny the possibility of accepting other proposals\, beliefs\, philosophies or cultures\, when considered more appropriate for modern mentality. Particularly because it is precisely due to this liberation and independence that we might really learn to respect—I do not like the term tolerate\, as will be explained further on—and value all these human manifestations aforementioned\, as they rightly deserve\, whether coming from our own tradition or from other civilisations. From out of this liberty\, we will more readily and unbiasedly be able to convene a grand forum where the voices of all cultures might be heard and where all proposals have their place. Most especially\, we will no longer hold to the belief that this tiny bastion we call “Western civilisation” has been something exceptional. \nExcerpt from Antoni Tàpies “La imaginació del món” [The Imagination of the World] \n  \nThe avant-garde always opted for gestures that revealed a certain introspection in relation to the reverberations and possibilities of our actions\, words and daily belongings. The work Mitjó\, conceived in 1991 and produced and installed in 2010 on the terrace of the Museu Tàpies\, is truly a summary of these attitudes of “liberation”—citing Tàpies—that come about through collectivised discomfort and disobedience. What happens when we carry out gestures that are unexpected and unusual\, when we impact contexts we “should not”? \nFrom the understanding of Mitjó as an effigy and symbol of marginalisation\, this series is conceived as a pagan ritual\, inviting nine artists to venerate this object and activate it with new narratives that pertain to creators’ realities. How does the queer body influence society\, in visual and positional terms? Why are certain bodies considered disruptive\, provocative\, polemical or inferior? How might we learn to find greater enjoyment from what is extravagant and ignored? \nFollowing the Sun is an extended solstice\, a celebratory menstrual cycle\, an offering to the Museu Tàpies as a place of encounter\, friction and action. The series seeks to bring together various voices that create by speaking from marginalisation\, struggle and resistance\, yet also in a celebratory way\, with a playful spirit. With a clear idea that avant-garde approaches are as alive as ever\, these performance and sound activations are drawn from queer\, decolonial\, dissident and anti-authoritarian realities\, all of which are resonant in the philosophy of Tàpies regarding the flight from the West and the creativity unfolding in the gesture of Mitjó\, which continues to unsettle and shake the normativity. \nThe programme of the second edition of Following the Sun has been curated by Gabriel Virgilio Luciani. The graphic design of the programme and solar navigation calendar were created by designers Ignasi Ayats and Ana Habash. The illustrations are by Eduard Sales. \n  \nGabriel Virgilio Luciani is a curator and professor of Art History based in Barcelona. Their research revolves around the intersection of queer theory\, magic\, decoloniality\, poetry and objectual affectivity. From 2017 to 2019\, alongside their studies in Fine Arts at Escola Massana\, they were the curator of the self-run space\, CERA 13; a radical experimental laboratory in Barcelona’s Raval neighbourhood. In 2020\, they obtained their Masters Degree in Digital Art Curatorship at the Universitat Ramon Llull – ESDi\, in Barcelona\, during which they collaborated with the gallery Dilalica. From 2021 to 2024\, they were editor-in-chief of exibart.es\, a contemporary culture magazine covering art exhibitions\, biennials\, fairs and festivals that also features interviews with artists\, curators and institutional directors. Currently\, they are Head of Programs and Academia of Metàfora Studio Arts\, an international contemporary art education platform located in Barcelona. \nOver the last nine years their curated exhibitions have been presented in programmes such as Art Nou and Loop Barcelona videoart festival. They have also curated and co-curated projects at THEFLOOR\, CERA 13\, TKM Room\, Escola Massana\, àngels barcelona – espai 2\, Tangent Projects\, L&B gallery\, Galeria H2O\, Reial Cercle Artístic (as a guest curator for the 1+1+1 Loop curated edition)\, Espai Souvenir and Mèdol – Centre d’Arts Contemporànies de Tarragona\, amongst others. \n  \nProgrammed Sessions \nSaturday 22 March\, at 1 pm: Amaru “Personaje Personaje” Peña \nSaturday 12 April\, at 1 pm: Agnes Essonti Luque \nSaturday 17 May\, at 1 pm: feyfeyfey \nSaturday 14 June\, at 7 pm: Adrasha \nSaturday 20 September\, at 6 pm: laSADCUM Guillem Jiménez \nSaturday 20 September\, at 7 pm: Sejal Parekh \nSaturday 18 October\, at 1 pm: Venus Jasper \nSaturday 15 November\, at 1 pm: Bella Báguena \nSaturday 13 December\, at 1 pm: Silvia Albert Sopale \n  \n\nLink to the first edition \n

SUMMARY:Following the Sun. Amaru “Personaje Personaje” Peña
DESCRIPTION:  \nI Swear \n  \nWe welcome the springtime with the start of this new edition of the series Following the Sun\, curated by Gabriel Virgilio Luciani. On this occasion\, Gabriel presents a programme that questions societal normativity\, inviting queer\, decolonial\, dissident and antiauthoritarian voices to the terrace of the Museu Tàpies\, presided by the artist’s Mitjó [Sock]\, an iconic image of marginalisation. \nThe series opens with Amaru “Personaje Personaje” Peña\, with many questions along the way: What conditions are imposed when someone does not consent to “belong”? Losing their home? Being forced to live on the margins? Renouncing everything that is theirs to access a different culture? Trans bodies\, migrant bodies and so many others are threatened because they do not fit into the standards that not even Antoni Tàpies’ Mitjó can respond to. \nThe proposal invites us to draw and erase borders\, tracing the experience of confronting Spanish and European migratory institutions. This involves a negotiation based on contradiction\, in a context that refuses to resonate with a plurality of bodies that express themselves as dissident\, as disobedient—intentionally or not—and which\, in their own way\, respond to the expectations of normative society. \n  \nAmaru “Personaje Personaje” Peña (she) is a culebra travesti born in Quito\, Ecuador\, in 1991\, and a migrant with Spanish nationality\, after having resided in the Kingdom of Spain for a few years. She was trained as a psychotherapist and studied a postgraduate course in Mediation and Artistic Research. Since 2015 she has combined her work in psychotherapy\, dedicate to trans and sexually diverse people\, as well as migrants\, racialised individuals and children\, with an artistic practice as a performer\, where she also engages her own experience as a member of some of these collectives. \n  \nPhotograph: Florian Hetz \n
