SUMMARY:The Chairs of Tàpies: Bartolomé Ferrando
DESCRIPTION:Tickets\n \n  \nThe Chairs of Tàpies is a series of multidisciplinary sound actions organised in the context of the Tàpies Centenary Year\, with the collaboration of Pompeu Fabra University. The proposal focuses on the voice and words to create a sound accompaniment to oral memory. In this way\, each of the thirteen sessions will feature a creator whose starting point will be the chair\, taken as a performative object\, linking back to the creative universe of Tàpies through the expressive languages and settings of the present day. \nThe action for this seventh chair of Tàpies is Brief Phonetic Actions\, a proposal by Bartolomé Ferrando. The project brings together short pieces based on the decomposition and re-composition of the voice and words\, with some dedicated to Antoni Tàpies. A few of the pieces are grounded in phonetic poetry\, situated part-way between speech and music\, derived from dadaism and related to Concrete Poetry and Lettrism. In most of these actions\, Ferrando addresses the improvised emission of language\, in the search for the traits of oral primitivism. \n  \nBartolomé Ferrando is Professor of Intermedia Art and Performance at the Polytechnic University of Valencia. As a performer\, he has participated in international festivals and encounters held in Europe\, the Americas and Asia. He has coordinated various international festivals at IVAM (Valencia) and MNCARS (Madrid). Ferrando has exhibited his visual poetry in various cities in Spain\, Italy and France\, and is a member of the groups SIC and dosentredos. Furthermore\, he has published the journal Texto poético and the books Hacia una poesía del hacer\, La mirada móvil\, El arte intermedia\, El arte de la performance\, elementos de creación\, and De la poesía visual al arte de acción\, amongst others. He has also produced various recordings on cassette tape\, vinyl and CD\, as well as videos and DVDs of performance work. \n  \n[Photography: Bartolomé Ferrando. Decadence Festival. València. 2015-1.

SUMMARY:Following the Sun: Belén Barenys
DESCRIPTION:Tickets\n  \n \n  \nThe roof of the Fundació Antoni Tàpies is to become an experimental playground for Opimelissa\, a collective who cook\, sing\, dance and lots more. We’ll be following the sun with the gentle irony and humour of Júlia Barbany\, the architecture of the catchy electrosong of Petit Ibèric\, the philosophical canticles of Max Grosse about the life and lovesickness of an odd sock with a hole in it\, the egodilirium of the sharp-penned dramatist and writer Berta Prieto (if you don’t know who she is yet\, you’re living in a cave!)\, the rhythm of DJ\, performer and militant for self-governance Meritxell de Soto\, the overflowing energy of tender\, multi-faceted punkmother Belén Barenys\, the experimental Latin music of Deprerreo\, the contorted body of Candela Capitán\, who denounces the sexualisation of women through convulsive metrics. \nFourth session of the programme Following the Sun\, an experimental series of sound and stage performances\, presenting nine new sessions by young creative talents. The programme\, curated and produced by Carolina Olivares Esturillo\, aims to promote the youthful\, inexhaustible energy of artists to light up and give new life to Tàpies’ solitary sock that presides over the Fundació’s roof terrace. \n  \nFourth session: Belén Barenys \nOnce upon a time there was a nerdy teenager who wrote\, drew\, danced and composed songs. Now she is older and teaches the things she does\, but at that time there was only art for art’s sake\, poetry for poetry’s sake\, without any pretensions. Artistic creation was an intimate act with herself\, a continuity of the game of childhood. This performance is the opportunity for that teenage Belén to present her songs\, texts and reflections from that time. They’re immature things\, cringe-worthy things\, but they’re perhaps the most honest and genuine things she’s ever created. It is a tribute to the artistic gesture that is made after the mathematics homework of 2nd year of ESO. Everything that has been buried in notebooks for years will come to light in a performance that closes a circle and celebrates the first times that a teenager dared to be something similar to an artist.  Feismo mágico is an autobiographic experimental sound by Belén Barenys curated by Carolina Olivares Esturillo. \n  \nBelén Barenys (Barcelona\, 1999) expresses himself through writing\, interpretation\, dance\, cinema\, art and songs. While she has a career as an actress and backup singer for the singer Rigoberta Bandini\, MEMÉ is her musical project in loner which aims to be radically self-conscious\, original and unpredictable. With irony as her flag\, this artist wants to delve into topics such as the internet\, sex or the transition from childhood to adulthood from a personal and honest perspective \n  \n\n\nProgramme curated and produced by Carolina Olivares Esturillo \nDesign: Ana Habash and Ignasi Ayats. Illustrated by: Eduard Sales \nTicket sales through the Fundació website and at the box office. Limited capacity \n\n\nLink to the full programme. \n

SUMMARY:Today is Tàpies: Eugènia Balcells - Pilar Bonet
DESCRIPTION:Tickets\n  \n \n  \n Today is Tàpies is a series of conversations across generations and disciplines\, led and moderated by arts journalist Rita Roig (Terrassa\, 1997) and organised by the Fundació Antoni Tàpies as part of the Tàpies Centenary Year. It sets out to interpret the artist’s texts as a starting point to discuss current issues such as environmentalism\, self-determination for peoples\, interculturality and the political commitment of art. \nThe series will encourage people to think about the artist’s words and thoughts though thirteen events at the Fundació Antoni Tàpies involving people from a range of professional backgrounds (arts\, education\, science\, politics\, the environment\, health and life sciences) and different generations. Altogether it will construct a polyphonic dialogue that will be recorded in podcast form thanks to cooperation with Catalunya Ràdio\, in order to recover and experience the knowledge generated in a different format and a different context. \n  \nChapter 7: Towards an emancipating spirituality \nIn his writing\, Antoni Tàpies often talked about spirituality. In the face of the idea that modernity might end up freeing us from faith and religious beliefs\, Tàpies argued that spiritual progress had to go hand in hand with the scientific\, technological and political advances of the day. Tàpies believed that artists had an important role to play in this progress. Taking up an idea of Paul Klee whereby the artist is “an intermediary\, a transmitter or nature”\, Tàpies argued that the job of artists was to pass on a spirituality suited to modern times. In this conversation\, Eugènia Balcells and Pilar Bonet will deal with the pairing of art and spirituality\, a relationship that has existed since the beginning of time\, leaving examples that show how creativity has been a way of passing on knowledge of the beyond\, of the intangible. \n  \nPARTICIPANTS \nEugènia Balcells is a pioneering Catalan audiovisual artist. She began her career in the 1970s between New York and Barcelona in the context of conceptual art\, and light has become the central theme of her work. Her videos\, films\, light installations\, performances and murals have been exhibited at festivals and museums worldwide. \n  \nPilar Bonet is a university lecturer\, art critic and curator. She explores feminism and emancipatory spiritualities\, in particular with regard to the contributions of visionary European writers born before 1950\, leading her to create a new critical space focusing on graphic\, textile and literary creativity by early women in the history of art from a feminist point of view\, among them Josefa Tolrà (1880–1959) and the Aragonese Julia Aguilar (1899–1979). She is president of the Associació Josefa Tolrà and director of the Visionary Women Art research group. \n  \nToday is Tàpies programme \n  \nPodcasts Today is Tàpies\, by Catalunya Ràdio.

SUMMARY:The Coal Men
DESCRIPTION:The consequences of a migratory process or displacement for people’s life is the central theme of the performance staged by Serge Attukwei Clottey as part of the Grec festival programme. The Ghanaian artist asks himself how we can reconstruct family experiences when we do not live in our home because we have had to leave\, how each individual deals with prejudice\, cultural anxiety and the feeling of belonging when they live in a foreign country. What physical and mental barriers a person must overcome in order to get used to living amidst unfamiliar elements and what power relations arise from this situation are some of the question Clottey asks himself as he places his own body in a state of anxiety\, the usual state of a subject affected by an identity crisis who seeks elements to allow him to regain the feeling of home\, and is forced to struggle against anti-migrant prejudice.

SUMMARY:The Chairs of Tàpies: Blanca Llum Vidal and Los Sara Fontán
DESCRIPTION:  \n \n  \nThe Chairs of Tàpies is a series of multidisciplinary sound actions organised in the context of the Tàpies Centenary Year\, with the collaboration of Pompeu Fabra University. The proposal focuses on the voice and words to create a sound accompaniment to oral memory. In this way\, each of the thirteen sessions will feature a creator whose starting point will be the chair\, taken as a performative object\, linking back to the creative universe of Tàpies through the expressive languages and settings of the present day. \nThe eighth proposal of the series was conceived by Blanca Llum Vidal and Los Sara Fontán\, in an action that modulates textures\, processes the voice and lends musicality to things which perhaps were not meant to be music. Bringing together a host of authors\, the invited artists will attempt to transform words into rhythmic matter\, extracting sounds out of things while building a narrative. As occurs in Tàpies\, the chair will not just be an idea\, but above all an object and a reality to be considered\, agitated and meditated upon. \n  \nBlanca Llum Vidal studied Social Work and Catalan Philology\, and has a Master in Contemporary Thought. She works in the Zona Franca of Barcelona in a shelter for people who are functional diverse. With Arnau Pons she has translated La Douleur\, by Marguerite Duras\, and individually has translated Duras’s book Écrire. She has edited the poetry of Àngel Guimerà\, Mercè Rodoreda’s letters from exile to Anna Murià\, short stories by Víctor Català\, Dues Catalunyes: jocfloralescos i xarons\, by Àngel Carmona and\, amongst other projects\, the book accompanying the exhibition on Francesc Tosquelles and the catalogue for Agnès Varda\, to be released this year at the CCCB. She was editor of an anthology of feminist essays by Maria Aurèlia Capmany\, and has recited her work in the Catalan Countries\, Spain\, Ukraine\, Santiago de Chile and Buenos Aires (at the International Book Fair). She has written about Ausiàs March\, Blanchot\, Kafka\, Rodoreda\, Arendt\, Hersch\, Català and Duras\, amongst others. In 2023 she released an anthology of her work\, published by Textos Sentido Edição & Letras\, translated to Portuguese by Àlex Tarradellas\, and is currently preparing an anthology of her work to be translated into Italian by Marcelo Belotti\, and into Spanish by Unai Velasco. Her publications include La cabra que hi havia\, Nosaltres i tu\, Homes i ocells\, Visca!\, Punyetera flor\, Maripasoula (crònica d’un viatge a la Guaiana francesa)\, Aquest amor que no és u / Este amor que no es uno (Spanish translation by Berta García Faet)\, Amor a la brega\, La princesa sou Vós / La princesa sois Vos (Spanish translation by Unai Velasco)\, Llegir petit i escriure sobre literatura i amor and No cometràs adulteri. She has published in the Quadern supplement of El País and in the political and cultural daily El Temps\, and is currently a regular contributor to the digital review Catorze. She has been on stage with Maria Callís to perform La Infanticida\, by Víctor Català\, performing as well with the classic and post-rock music of Los Sara Fontán\, and most recently with the sound designs of Julián D’Avino\, in a show taking its aim at contradictions in politics\, love\, ethics and aesthetics\, both old and new. This year she was an invitee to the Guadalajara Book Fair (Mexico). \nLos Sara Fontán is an experimental duo featuring Sara Fontán and Edi Pou. They focus on live performance of a physical\, passionate and punk character\, ever-changing and open to the surroundings. A concert by Los Sara Fontán is a play on melody and rhythm\, adding features of programmatic romanticism to directly and indirectly narrate a story\, giving audience members freedom to interpret the work in a personal manner. \nStimulated by the question of whether it is possible to advance a career in music without following the productive routines of the music industry\, Los Sara Fontán spent five years touring\, playing at festivals and self-run venues across Europe\, without recording their music. This was possible thanks to a musical and personal underground network they feel fortunate to belong to. In the autumn of 2023\, they released Queda pendiente\, an album done at their own residence\, which they performed\, recorded and produced themselves. \nTheir music is open code\, as the prolific duo continually recomposes its own creations to open them up to broader\, multidisciplinary collectives\, whether other musicians (SO with Amorante\, 4132314 with Tarta Relena and Cocanha)\, different communities (Laboratório dos Riscos Impossíveis\, with residents of the Fontainhas neighbourhood in Porto)\, dancers (Fem una bona pena abans de morir\, with Sònia Gómez)\, poetry (La princesa sou Vós\, with Blanca Llum Vidal)\, theatre (Concrete Matter\, by Los Detectives\, and Songs for the bitch-witch women\, by Mariona Naudin)\, or TV series and films (the soundtracks for Autodefensa\, Magaluf Ghost Town and Remember My Name). \n  \nThis session of The Chairs of Tàpies will be part of the opening programme of the exhibition Antoni Tàpies. The Practice of Art.

SUMMARY:Antoni Tàpies. The Practice of Art | Opening programme
DESCRIPTION:  \nAntoni Tàpies The Practice of Art will be opened on July 19\, 2024\,  at 7 p.m.\, with an event curated by Imma Prieto and Judith Barnés\, which will feature the participation of Blanca Llum Vidal and Los Sara Fontán; Lolo&Sosaku and the tribute to Mika Vainio. \n  \nProgramme \n· Blanca Llum Vidal and Los Sara Fontán. Poetic action \nPublic presentation of the eighth “Tapies’ Chairs” programme. An action that will modulate textures\, process voices and give sound to what perhaps was not intended to be music. Summoning a lot of authors\, the poet and the musicians will try to transform the word into rhythmic matter and extract sounds from things to build a story. The chair\, like Tàpies\, will not only be an idea. It will be\, above all\, an object and reality to think about\, stir\, meditate on. \n  \n· Interlude. Tribute to Mika Vainio \nAs an interlude\, the work of Mika Vainio Sondear (Probe)  will allow us to hear what sounds in real time on the roof of the museum with the sculpture by Antoni Tàpies Núvol i Cadira (1990). This sound installation by the Finnish artist\, created in 2001 as part of the exhibition Discourse architectures\, was reactivated for the project Engagement within the framework of the Sónar 2022 festival\, which once again collaborates with the museum for this inauguration. \n  \n· Lolo & Sosaku. Sound piece Tribute to Antoni Tàpies \nUsing a set of machines and a vintage piano\, belonging to the composer and musical theorist Josep Barberà i Humbert\, a sound space will be built that will represent Tàpies’ relationship with the music of Luigi Nonno or Giacinto Scelsi\, among others. To do this\, the piano in question will be manipulated with the intervention of machines\, the human voice and the texts that Tàpies wrote in his paintings. The entire proposal will feature the participation of the soprano Ximena Agurto and the multidisciplinary artist Renata Gelosi. \n  \n· Cocktail on the terraces with music from DJ Bla&co \n  \n[Image: Piano & Machines\, Lolo & Sosaku\, 2020.]

SUMMARY:Following the Sun: Berta Prieto + Aina Serena
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe roof of the Fundació Antoni Tàpies is to become an experimental playground for Opimelissa\, a collective who cook\, sing\, dance and lots more. We’ll be following the sun with the gentle irony and humour of Júlia Barbany\, the architecture of the catchy electrosong of Petit Ibèric\, the philosophical canticles of Max Grosse about the life and lovesickness of an odd sock with a hole in it\, the egodilirium of the sharp-penned dramatist and writer Berta Prieto (if you don’t know who she is yet\, you’re living in a cave!)\, the rhythm of DJ\, performer and militant for self-governance Meritxell de Soto\, the overflowing energy of tender\, multi-faceted punkmother Belén Barenys\, the experimental Latin music of Deprerreo\, the contorted body of Candela Capitán\, who denounces the sexualisation of women through convulsive metrics. \nFifth session of the programme Following the Sun\, an experimental series of sound and stage performances\, presenting nine new sessions by young creative talents. The programme\, curated and produced by Carolina Olivares Esturillo\, aims to promote the youthful\, inexhaustible energy of artists to light up and give new life to Tàpies’ solitary sock that presides over the Fundació’s roof terrace. \n  \nFifth session: Berta Prieto + Aina Serena \n“Final de curs\, tú la letra y yo la música” is an experiment that wants to conclude this year where the impossibility of finding concrete has marked our days. She blah blah blah blah and in the end nothing. I don’t even know what I’m saying\, but I can’t stop talking. Let everyone be quiet\, I want to hear my thoughts! Let my thoughts be silent\, I want to listen to everyone! Consent\, desire\, limits… My goodness\, what a year. How would all these reflections sound? Everything is so important! I don’t understand anything you’re saying. On the other side is the utopia of gesture\, abstraction\, suggestion… I also want to exist in doubt\, but doubt is only a fantasy: we don’t have time. You are too literal\, too literal\, you are too literal: “too much baby.” He has to learn to shut up in class. He doesn’t participate enough. With the inability to speak\, Berta Prieto\, the girl who cannot stop talking: something never seen before in this circus! And\, with the condemnation of abstraction\, Aina Serena: unable to materialize a single thought! Accompany these poor “geeks” to resolve the definitive dispute between word and gesture\, reason and emotion\, literality and poetics. \nBerta Prieto was born in 1998 and spent all her childhood and adolescence in Celrà\, until he decided to go to Barcelona and study interpretation. It started to write to give herself and her friends roles\, and so she has completed three works: El Chinabum (La Gleva)\, Fuck You Modern Family (Sala Beckett and Bitó Productions) and Derecho a Pataleta: the most exciting mission of the spies of true (Sala Beckett). She is one of the creators of the Autodefensa series\, nominated for many awards important etc. He has also started speaking and writing in different spaces of prestige such as the CCCB or El País. Now she is also very busy writing another play\, another series and having many ideas to continue living of the story. \n  \n\n\nProgramme curated and produced by Carolina Olivares Esturillo \nDesign: Ana Habash and Ignasi Ayats. Illustrated by: Eduard Sales \nTicket sales through the Fundació website and at the box office. Limited capacity \n\n\nLink to the full programme. \n

Altogether it will construct a polyphonic dialogue that will be recorded in podcast form thanks to cooperation with Catalunya Ràdio\, in order to recover and experience the knowledge generated in a different format and a different context. \n  \nChapter 8: Activism from the sidelines \nTàpies celebrates the moment when Europe finally comes up against “other cultures up to then considered savage that shifted the hitherto untouchable centre of gravity away from the shattered humanism of Europe for good.” The artist was clear that looking beyond Europe did not mean fleeing\, and that in the art of some communities described as backward there was useful wisdom for modernity. In this conversation\, Remei Sipi and Erick Beltrán will be discussing why some western values still seem untouchable to us and some forms of cultural expression are regarded as exotic\, taking as a starting point Antoni Tàpies’ thoughts on the Eurocentric bias in the art world and about the colonial inheritance in our culture. \n  \nPARTICIPANTS \nRemei Sipi is a writer\, essayist\, children’s educator and activist\, an expert in gender and development. She works to defend women\, ethnic minorities and migrants\, and has helped organise African women’s associations in attempt to avoid the folklorisation of the intercultural events to which they are invited. Since the 1980s she has led different associations and been a member of groups like E’Waiso Ipola and the immigrant women’s network in Catalonia. In 1995 she set up the publisher Mey\, a landmark in Equatorial Guinean literature. She is currently the secretary of the association E’Waiso Ipola and promoter of the federation of African women’s associations in Spain. \n  \nErick Beltrán is an artist who explores and reflects on the concept of publishing and discourse construction. He takes an interest in the information that circulates and how it influences our view of the world. His work makes use of drawings\, photographs\, maps and other objects with the aim of linking public art and graphic languages. His aim is to reveal the mechanisms that define\, assess\, classify\, select\, reproduce and distribute images to create political\, economic and cultural discourses in contemporary society. \n  \nToday is Tàpies programme \nPodcasts Today is Tàpies\, by Catalunya Ràdio.

SUMMARY:The Chairs of Tàpies. Hugo Gómez-Chao Porta
DESCRIPTION:The Chairs of Tàpies is a series of multidisciplinary sound actions organised in the context of the Tàpies Centenary Year\, with the collaboration of Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF). The proposal focuses on the voice and words to create a sound accompaniment to oral memory. In this way\, each of the thirteen sessions will feature a creator whose starting point will be the chair\, taken as a performative object\, linking back to the creative universe of Tàpies through the expressive languages and settings of the present day. \nThe guest in the ninth Chair of Tàpies is Hugo Gómez-Chao\, who is to present the proposition entitled Three Voices. Three voices try to speak in the darkness. Three voices try to remember a text\, the words\, the inflections of their own voice. They try to learn to speak again through fragments of phrases\, words\, whispers\, but any trace of communication has been lost in this superimposition of air over nothing. Suddenly\, some signs appear that connect it all: en echo\, a flash of meaning\, a gesture that makes the three voices sing at the same time\, a pure word. And suddenly what can be heard becomes visible. \nBased on texts by Antoni Tàpies\, Leonardo da Vinci and Ángel Valente\, Three voices explores the physicality of the human voice to create a choreography that can only exist in the ear. This event also features the sopranos Margarita Rodríguez and Adriana Aranda and the mezzosoprano Cristina Segura\, as well as percussionists Noè Rodrigo and Sabela Castro. \n  \nHugo Gómez-Chao Porta \nBorn in A Coruña\, he studied composition with Beat Furrer at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Graz\, and with Ramón Lazkano at Musikene in Donostia/Sant Sebastián.

SUMMARY:Gaudir UB course. Antoni Tàpies and the Practice of Art.
DESCRIPTION:Antoni Tàpies was born in Barcelona on 13 December 1923. Today he is recognised as one of the most important artists of the 20th century. However\, his work remains relatively little-known and is often considered cryptic and inaccessible. On this course we’ll give you some keys to get into Tàpies’ work. Through theoretical and practical sessions held in different parts of the museum\, we will look at a range of aspects: the artistic conception that like behind his work\, his creative techniques and processes\, the links with the art of his time and his contributions to the history of art.

SUMMARY:Today is Tàpies: Gloria Moure - Mabel Palacín
DESCRIPTION:Tickets\n  \n \nOrganised by the Museu Tàpies as part of the Tàpies Centenary Year\, Today is Tàpies is a series of transgenerational and interdisciplinary conversations conducted and moderated by the cultural journalist Rita Roig (Terrassa\, 1997). The aim is to interpret Tàpies’ texts as a starting point for reflecting on current issues such as ecology\, the right to self-determination\, interculturality and political commitment in art. \nThe words and ideas of the artist will be revisited during a series of thirteen sessions\, with invited participants from different generations and diverse professional fields (culture\, education\, science\, politics\, environment\, health and human sciences) helping to construct a polyphonic story that will be collected in the form of a podcast. Thanks to the collaboration of Catalunya Ràdio\, the podcast will allow us to experience the generated knowledge in another format and in another context. \n  \nChapter 9: Being an Artist: Philosophers of Combat and Action \n“Can we talk today about the status of artist in a general way\, with features common to all of them?” wondered Antoni Tàpies. The artist was fascinated by creators of all kinds who represented radically different archetypes. From the spiritual Zen master to the versatile Renaissance man\, the definition of an artist can take so many forms\, that we can get lost in a sea of relativism and conventions. But what does being an artist mean in today’s world? Is mastery of a technique enough? Must one know one is an artist in order to be one? In this conversation Gloria Moure and Mabel Palacín discuss the conception of the artist and the role they are to play in society. \n  \nPARTICIPANTS \nGloria Moure is an art historian and freelance curator. In the course of her career she has been director of the Fundació Espai Poblenou (Barcelona) and the Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea (CGAC\, Santiago de Compostela). In the last fifteen years\, alongside her role as a curator\, she has worked extensively in publishing. She currently heads Colección 20_21\, a series of monographs published by Ediciones Polígrafa that has a prominent place among the collections of work and writing by leading contemporary artists. \n  \nMabel Palacín is a multidisciplinary artist who works in film\, video and photography. Her work reflects on the centrality of images in the contemporary world and on how we relate to them. She is also interested in the multiplicity of formats of images and in how they influence our relationship with the world. She sees images as theoretical agents able to construct models on the basis of which to understand and expand today’s visual landscape. \n  \nToday is Tàpies programme \nPodcasts Today is Tàpies\, by Catalunya Ràdio. \n

SUMMARY:Tàpies\, Montsalvatge and Victoria
DESCRIPTION:  \nThroughout 2024\, the Fundación Victoria de los Ángeles and the Museu Tàpies are celebrating the centenary of the birth of the soprano and the artist\, respectively. To this end\, and within the framework of the commemoration\, the Museu Tàpies will host a concert to celebrate their friendship and highlight their artistic careers. Curiously\, despite both living in Barcelona\, Victoria de los Ángeles and Antoni Tàpies usually met in New York\, especially during the 1960s and 1970s\, coinciding with the internationalisation of Tàpies’ work and its inclusion in private and public collections.  \nTheir mutual admiration is demonstrated by various documents from that time. Together with his wife Teresa Barba\, Tàpies collected numerous records\, among which Carmen\, sung by Victoria de los Ángeles\, stood out as one of his most precious jewels. Equally\, Victoria de los Ángeles acquired several works by Tàpies over the years\, which she kept in her own home. Proof of this reciprocal recognition is the 2007 commission for the logo of the newly-created Fundación Victoria de los Ángeles\, designed by Tàpies for the occasion using some of his personal symbols. \nThe soprano Montserrat Seró returns to LIFE Victoria\, accompanied on the piano by Marc Serra\, who will also debut with saxophonist Gisela Dekort\, winner of the Xavier Montsalvatge Award in the Les Corts International Music Competition. Their recital will establish a dialogue with Tàpies’ paintings and his musical preferences\, exploring the relationship with Victoria and Montsalvatge. The repertoire will include works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart\, Johannes Brahms\, Federico García Lorca\, George Gershwin\, Xavier Montsalvatge and Leonard Bernstein\, among others.

SUMMARY:Following the Sun: Meritxell de Soto
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe roof of the Fundació Antoni Tàpies is to become an experimental playground for Opimelissa\, a collective who cook\, sing\, dance and lots more. We’ll be following the sun with the gentle irony and humour of Júlia Barbany\, the architecture of the catchy electrosong of Petit Ibèric\, the philosophical canticles of Max Grosse about the life and lovesickness of an odd sock with a hole in it\, the egodilirium of the sharp-penned dramatist and writer Berta Prieto (if you don’t know who she is yet\, you’re living in a cave!)\, the rhythm of DJ\, performer and militant for self-governance Meritxell de Soto\, the overflowing energy of tender\, multi-faceted punkmother Belén Barenys\, the experimental Latin music of Deprerreo\, the contorted body of Candela Capitán\, who denounces the sexualisation of women through convulsive metrics. \nFifth session of the programme Following the Sun\, an experimental series of sound and stage performances\, presenting nine new sessions by young creative talents. The programme\, curated and produced by Carolina Olivares Esturillo\, aims to promote the youthful\, inexhaustible energy of artists to light up and give new life to Tàpies’ solitary sock that presides over the Fundació’s roof terrace. \n  \nSixth session: Meritxell de Soto \nMeritxell de Soto presents Ultra Femme Frequencies\, a vinyl DJ set of drones and atmosphere\, where the music is not only heard\, but lived. In this piece\, De Soto challenges the technical conventions of DJing\, often associated with traditional masculinity\, through the choreographic practice of tapping with the whole body\, an investigation he has developed together with the dancer and choreographer Guillem Jiménez. The sound layers immerse the listener in a space of stillness and expansion\, evoking a tactile sensuality: the vibration travels from the frequencies to the skin\, establishing a dialogue between the sound and the body. Here\, the technique is transformed into choreography\, turning the body into an extension of the sound. Part of the choreographic movements are inspired by gestures taken from DJ archives\, re-contextualized in a performative space and impregnated with elements of Bimbo culture. The work proposes a re-reading of the act of piercing from the perspective of provocation\, play and irony\, exploring new territories on the periphery of outdated paradigms and hot takes. \n  \nMeritxell de Soto is an artist who challenges the boundaries between sound and performance\, investigating how sound devices interact with physicality and power dynamics. His work deals with topics such as the construction of gender\, identity and eroticism\, using sound to question and reimagine these concepts. De Soto creates spaces where the boundaries between the performer and technology are blurred\, generating sensory experiences that invite reflection on the body as a place of agency. \nIn projects like Espai Segur\, he subverts the traditional norms of DJing\, integrating his body into the action of punching and encouraging a critical dialogue about care and safety in high-intensity environments\, often dominated by traditional masculinity. \nOn a conceptual level\, Meritxell de Soto’s work is a constant exploration of how sound and popular spaces can become platforms for critical reflection. He has performed at festivals and parties such as Sónar (BCN)\, Tremor (PGL)\, Keep Hush (UK) and Ankali (PRG)\, and has participated as a performer with the LASADCUM company at Teatros del Canal and Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona (CCCB)\, among others. His piece Espai Segur has been presented at the Gayte Lyrique in Paris and Casa Monjuïc\, in Barcelona. In addition\, he has been part of the round table Dance Dance Revolution\, at Sónar+D\, and is currently curating the electronic music festivals Tresor\, at the CCCB. \nHis practice as a DJ is characterized by the hybridization of musical genres\, focused on the deconstructed club sound\, with a critical look at how these sound choices impact the collective experience of the public\, promoting the creation of communities. \n  \nTechnical details: \n· Creative direction and interpretation: Meritxell de Soto \n· Choreography and Movement collaborator: Guillem Jiménez \n· Styling: Romina Puga \n· Programme curated and produced by Carolina Olivares Esturillo \n\n\n· Design: Ana Habash and Ignasi Ayats. \n· Illustrated by: Eduard Sales \n· Ticket sales through the website and at the box office of Museu Tàpies.

SUMMARY:Sarah Maldoror. An Alternative Identity
DESCRIPTION:The season of films Sarah Maldoror. An Alternative Identity responds to the need to network with the city’s institutions to develop a de-localised programme and the desire to highlight a pioneer of African film like Sarah Maldoror\, who left us a wonderful legacy on the subject of negritude. The season sets out to revisit Maldoror’s work\, as a figure as yet little-known but essential in dealing with the decolonial movement and struggles for social diversity. The four sessions\, designed by the Museu Tàpies with the special support of Annouchka de Andrade\, the film-maker’s daughter\, will set out from Maldoror’s visual poetics to portray a future society rooted in anticolonialism and pan-Africanism.  \nSarah Maldoror (Condom\, France\, 1929 – Fontenay-lès-Bris\, France\, 2020) is considered the first black woman to make a feature-length film in Africa and represents a key figure in world and revolutionary cinema\, firmly and unabashedly anti-racist. Over several decades\, her prolific body of work includes more than forty films that combine fiction and documentary in the broadest sense of the term. Altogether it is a kind of poetry dedicated to translating the black cultural\, social and political movement into images and sound. \nThe seminar will invite film critics\, activists and sociologists to help to construct a fruitful dialogue around concepts like colonialism\, social justice and migration\, but will also deal with broader terms in connection with possession\, baggage\, heritage or identity. \n  \nSession 1:     Date: 25 September 2024 | Venue: Filmoteca de Catalunya | 6 pm \nPresentation of the series Sarah Maldoror: An Alternative Identity with the directors of the Museu Tàpies and the Filmoteca de Catalunya\nOpening lecture: Filming Means Taking Sides\, by Annouchka de Andrade\nScreening of Monangambé (1968\, 17 min) and Ana Mercedes Hoyos (2008\, 13 min)\nPublic debate and questions to Annouchka de Andrade \n  \nSession 2:     Date: 27 September 2024 | Venue: Filmoteca de Catalunya | 6 pm \nPresentation of the session by the Filmoteca de Catalunya\nPresentation of the Carnaval trilogy by Annouchka de Andrade\nPerformative reading by Yazel Parra Nahmens\nScreening of the Carnaval trilogy: Un carnaval dans le Sahel\, Fogo\, île de feu and Carnaval en Guinée-Bissau (1979-1980\, 80 min). First screening in Spain of the restored copies. \n  \nSession 3:     Date: 1 October 2024 | Venue: Institut Français | 6 pm \nPresentation of the series by the Tàpies museum\nPreamble: In Search of an Identity\, by Annouchka de Andrade\nScreening of Aimé Césaire: le masque des mots (1987\, 47 min)\nPublic debate and questions to Annouchka de Andrade \n  \nSession 4:     Date: 2 October 2024 | Venue: Museu Tàpies | 5.30 pm \nPresentation of the series by the Tàpies museum\nScreening of Sambizanga (1972-1973\, 102 min)\nRound table with Annouchka de Andrade and Daniellis Hernández\, moderated by Yazel Parra Nahmens \n  \n  \nWith the participation and collaboration of the Filmoteca de Catalunya and the Institut Français de Barcelone\, With the support of the programme Museu Habitat\, an initiative by the Generalitat de Catalunya. \n

SUMMARY:Tàpies landscape
DESCRIPTION:Tour/workshop for families at the exhibition Antoni Tàpies: The Practice of Art. \nAntoni Tàpies and his family spent their summers in the Montseny area\, where they enjoyed the nature park. We often find landscapes or elements that make reference to nature in his work. During the tour we’ll speculate about the different stories some of his pictures have to tell\, by asking each other questions. What is Somac the lion doing in the middle of a landscape by Tàpies? Can bulls fly? Can a man be bigger than a landscape? During the workshop we’ll make our own Tàpies landscape-collage. We’ll create a landscape with techniques used by the artist\, adding elements taken from his works.

SUMMARY:Oliver Marchart. Conflictual Aesthetics: Artistic Activism and the Public Sphere
DESCRIPTION:The NED publishing house has recently released the book Estética conflictual. Activismo artístico y esfera pública [Conflictual Aesthetics: Artistic Activism and the Public Sphere] by Oliver Marchart\, with a prologue by Laura Llevadot. This publication explores the relationship between artistic practices featuring political activism and art’s political power as expressed through the activism of the past decade\, upholding present-day liberal revolutions. \nIn this regard\, in the last twenty years two events have particularly stood out: the crisis of 2008 and the COVID-19 pandemic. This convulsive political moment has given rise to various activist initiatives that have challenged neoliberalism’s demands for austerity and imposed precariousness. Rather than finding haven amidst comfortable institutions\, art has claimed a political vocation for itself by intervening in the articulation of activist positions\, broadening spaces of conflict and dissent so as to conceive of other possible ways of living in the public sphere. \nThe Museu Tàpies will host a presentation of this book\, accompanied by a debate on the activist turn in contemporary art in recent decades and art’s capacity to intervene in the public sphere. Participants will be Imma Prieto\, director of the Museu Tàpies; Carles Guerra\, independent curator; Laura Llevadot\, philosopher and teacher; and Oliver Marchart\, author of the book and of other publications\, including Post-Foundational Political Thought (2007) and Thinking Antagonism: Political Ontology after Laclau (2018). \n  \nProgramme: \n11h-11.30 am    Presentation of the book by Oliver Marchart\, Estètica conflictual (NED\, 2024).\n11h.                   Laura Llevadot: Pensament posfundacional i estètica posfundacional.\n11.10 h.            Juan Evaristo Valls Boix: Oliver Marchart i la qüestió de l’art polític\n11.20 h.           Oliver Marchart: Estètica Conflictual (Conflictual Aesthetics) \n11.30-12.30 h.

SUMMARY:The Chairs of Tàpies: Difraccions Series
DESCRIPTION:The Chairs of Tàpies is a series of multidisciplinary sound actions organised in the context of the Tàpies Centenary Year\, with the collaboration of Pompeu Fabra University. The proposal focuses on the voice and words to create a sound accompaniment to oral memory. In this way\, each of the thirteen sessions will feature a creator whose starting point will be the chair\, taken as a performative object\, linking back to the creative universe of Tàpies through the expressive languages and settings of the present day. \n  \nThe Tàpies chairs: cicle Difraccions \nThe tenth sound action of the cycle is “L’escolta fugaç”\, a proposal from the cicle Difraccions. Listening\, as the central act of the musical event\, emerges in its highest intensity in the context of multidisciplinary improvisation\, both on the part of the public and those performing. The creation of material through improvisation shifts us into a state of ongoing attention\, where we are required to react to the appearance of new ideas that might arise from chance\, fortuitous mishaps\, deviations or even new imaginary worlds of sound. \nThe guitarist Amidea Clotet proposes a dialogue between sound and movement with the dancer Sònia Sánchez. This interchange invites us to reflect on the role of listening in generative improvisation. How do performers listen to themselves while improvising\, and how do they respond to their deviations\, errors or new solutions as they arise when performing live? How does movement react to sound\, and how is sound modified in function of what movement proposes? Listening\, at the core of the musical event\, is made manifest in this context with full intensity. \n  \nAmidea Clotet is one of the emerging figures in the Barcelona generative improvisation scene. She studied electric guitar at the Liceu Conservatory in Barcelona\, as well as contemporary composition in Denmark\, which is where she began her path towards improvised music. Clotet creates spontaneous soundscapes using extended techniques and objects\, resulting in music that is raw and\, as she observes\, arises as a response to the times we live in. Her creations are situated part-way between playfully risky sound experimentation and the beauty of subtlety. \n  \nSònia Sánchez is a dancer whose work has its foundations in flamenco\, free improvisation and the Japanese Body Weather dance technique. She has a preference for improvised sound laboratories exploring through the body\, while her work is grounded in flamenco roots of sound in space\, the body that resonates in movement and danced space. She began her research into the relationship between the attitude of flamenco rhythm and the organic speed of Body Weather in 2001. In 2004\, she added to her career path an interest in free music\, and since then has dedicated herself to daily exploration of this broad array of terrains and horizons \n  \n

SUMMARY:Today is Tàpies. Perejaume - Marta Tafalla
DESCRIPTION:Today is Tàpies    is a series of conversations across generations and disciplines\, led and moderated by arts journalist Rita Roig (Terrassa\, 1997) and organised by the Museu Tàpies\, as part of the Tàpies Centenary Year. It sets out to interpret the artist’s texts as a starting point to discuss current issues such as environmentalism\, self-determination for peoples\, interculturality and the political commitment of art. \nThe series will encourage people to think about the artist’s words and thoughts though thirteen events at the Museu Tàpies involving people from a range of professional backgrounds (arts\, education\, science\, politics\, the environment\, health and life sciences) and different generations. Altogether it will construct a polyphonic dialogue that will be recorded in podcast form thanks to cooperation with Catalunya Ràdio\, in order to recover and experience the knowledge generated in a different format and a different context. \n  \nChapter 11: Environmentalism and other directions \nTàpies wrote time and again about nature. He did so in talking about the Montseny massif in particular\, to combat the degradation of this landscape he loved deeply\, but every word he devoted to the Montseny actually referred to the natural environment\, the life around us. For him\, “The environment is a material from which all of us are committed to constructing what should be the most beautiful and delicate of our works of art: life itself.” The concern to represent the landscape\, care for it and value it is a constant in Tàpies’ work\, and in that of many other artists influenced by him. In this conversation\, Perejaume talks to philosopher and environmentalist Marta Tafalla about the relationship between the environment and art\, creation and nature and the commitment artists must have to this. \n  \nPARTICIPANTS \nPerejaume is an artist and writer who combines visual and literary creativity. Since the early 1980s he has produced an extensive body of work including books of poetry\, essays\, criticism and catalogues in which he constantly questions the relations between nature and culture with the aim of reformulating the relationship between art and territory. Joan Brossa\, Joan Miró\, J.V. Foix and Jacint Verdaguer are some of the figures whose creative work has influenced his artistic vision\, which also draws on the popular culture of the Maresme area and the world of farming. In 2005 he won the national visual arts prize awarded by the Catalan government\, and in 2006 the national arts prize awarded by the Spanish ministry of culture. \n  \nMarta Tafalla is a philosopher who explores the relationship between animals\, humans and nature from an ethical and aesthetic point of view. She considers environmentalism and animalism essential concepts in coping with today’s challenges. She currently lectures in ethics and aesthetics at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona\, and is also a member of the scientific council of the Centre for Animal Ethics at Universitat Pompeu Fabra. Her most recent publications are Ecoanimal. Una estética plurisensorial\, ecologista y animalista (Plaza y Valdés\, 2019)\, an essay in which she rethinks our relationship with nature and sets out a multisensory\, ecologist and animalist proposition that is essential to facing up to today’s challenges; and Filosofía ante la crisis ecológica (Plaza y Valdés\, 2022) \n  \n  \nToday is Tàpies programme \nPodcasts Today is Tàpies\, by Catalunya Ràdio. \n

SUMMARY:Following the Sun: Deprerreo
DESCRIPTION:The roof of Museu Tàpies is to become an experimental playground for Opimelissa\, a collective who cook\, sing\, dance and lots more. We’ll be following the sun with the gentle irony and humour of Júlia Barbany\, the architecture of the catchy electrosong of Petit Ibèric\, the philosophical canticles of Max Grosse about the life and lovesickness of an odd sock with a hole in it\, the egodilirium of the sharp-penned dramatist and writer Berta Prieto (if you don’t know who she is yet\, you’re living in a cave!)\, the rhythm of DJ\, performer and militant for self-governance Meritxell de Soto\, the overflowing energy of tender\, multi-faceted punkmother Belén Barenys\, the experimental Latin music of Deprerreo\, the contorted body of Candela Capitán\, who denounces the sexualisation of women through convulsive metrics. \nFollowing the Sun is an an experimental series of sound and stage performances\, presenting nine new sessions by young creative talents. The programme\, curated and produced by Carolina Olivares Esturillo\, aims to promote the youthful\, inexhaustible energy of artists to light up and give new life to Tàpies’ solitary sock that presides over the Museu’s roof terrace. \n  \nSeventh session:  “Sonidos de Resistencia: Ecos de Venezuela”\, Deprerreo collective \nThe “Mitjò” terrace of the Museu Tàpies presents the seventh session of the cycle of sound manifestations and stage experiments “Following the Sun”\, and has the pleasure of hosting\, on October 19\, 2024 at 12 noon\, the performance of the colectivo Deprerreo collective. This group\, founded by the Venezuelan music producer based in Barcelona\, ​​Luis Miranda (@lilfemiranda)\, will premiere a new sound intervention in collaboration with Venezuelan artists based in Barcelona. Aquiles Ignacio Hinestrosa (@celestial.trash._)\, Marta Cruz (@candadismo) and Natalia Ortega Orozco (@_nana_ortegaorozco). The visuals that will be projected during the sound action belong to the archive of Luken Ignacio Quintana\, founder of the colectivo activista x Venezuela @hacha.machete. \nDeprerreo will create a live song that evokes resistance\, freedom and the cultural richness of the Caribbean. The sound piece will not only celebrate the cultural diversity of Venezuela\, but will also serve as an encouragement for the more than 7.71 million Venezuelan migrants who have left their home in search of a better future. \nIn “Sonidos de Resistencia: Ecos de Venezuela” the great cultural richness of the Caribbean will be shown\, inspired by spiritual syncretism\, countercultural rebellion\, connection with ancestors and the reflection of community power in times of adversity. In addition\, it will be set to a spiritualist theme\, thus conveying a message of hope and solidarity. \nThis meeting seeks to make visible the social and cultural crisis that Venezuela faces\, highlighting the strength and resilience of its people\, as well as its artistic legacy in an act of resistance. We invoke energies that promote immediate changes and a deep connection with all those who have not been able to migrate. Join us in this celebration of cultural resistance and hope! \n  \n· Curatorship and artistic production: Carolina Olivares Esturillo \n· Design: Ana Habash and Ignasi Ayats. \n· Illustration: Eduard Sales \n· Ticket sales via the website and at the museum reception.

SUMMARY:Rereflux
DESCRIPTION:Thirty years ago now\, the Museu Tàpies\, then headed by Manuel Borja-Villel\, opened In the Spirit of Fluxus\, a comprehensive retrospective\, curated by Elizabeth Armstrong and Joan Rothfuss\, of the movement that revolutionised the foundations of art in the 1960s. The exhibition featured the work of artists including Joseph Beuys\, George Brecht\, Robert Filliou\, Dick Higgins\, Shigeko Kubota\, George Maciunas\, Yoko Ono\, Nam June Paik\, Benjamin Patterson\, Carolee Schneemann\, Mieko (Chieko) Shiomi\, Ben Vautier\, Wolf Vostell\, Emmett Williams and La Monte Young\, among many others\, and of Zaj artists like Juan Hidalgo and Esther Ferrer. \nThe exhibition was also accompanied by a series of activities which included the Reflux project\, a programme of re-enactments of Fluxus events curated by Oscar Abril Ascaso and executed by a group of young local performance artists: Borja Zabala\, Jaume Alcalde\, Denys Blacker\, Lluís Alabern\, Júlia Montilla\, Joan Casellas\, Quim Tarrida\, Miquel Baixas\, Alexis Tauler and Noel Tatú. \nIn the Spirit of Fluxus played a central role in catalysing a moment of effervescence in performance techniques in Catalonia in general\, and in action art in particular in Barcelona. Intense and collaborative\, but not free from criticism and disagreement\, it set the pace for a generation of young artists and\, among other ramifications\, led to the creation of the first platform for performing artists in Spain\, Club7\, right here in the museum. \nRereflux is a programme of debate and action that sets out to commemorate that crucial moment in the history of action art in Barcelona and in the artistic practices of the 1990s in this country. With this aim\, Rereflux is organising a round table with some of the protagonists of the Reflux project of 1994 and a programme of Fluxus actions executed by contemporary performance artists\, in what would now be a new Re-Reflux Orchestra for the 21st century. \nThe initiative forms part of the ARTefACTe4 days\, an event to foster contemporary performance practices that works as a laboratory for new cultural institutionality. A project by CLUB9\, the platform that is the heir to Club7 and that was publicly launched in the auditorium of the Museu Tàpies on 29 May 2021. \n  \nPROGRAMME \n6 pm. Talk by Oscar Abril Ascaso\, curator of the project Reflux 1994. \n7 pm. Round table with Manuel Borja-Villel\, former director of the Museu Tàpies\, and Lluís Alabern and Joan Casellas\, artists on the project Reflux 1994. \n8 pm. Fluxus performances by Estel Boada\, Paloma Orts\, Pia Sommer\, Neus Masdeu and Llapispanc. \n  \n  \nPicture credits: Teresa Ramírez – Arxiu Aire \nPerformance by the Reflux Orchestra in the auditorium of the Museu Tàpies on 29 January 1995.

SUMMARY:The Chairs of Tàpies: Eduard Escoffet
DESCRIPTION:The Chairs of Tàpies is a series of multidisciplinary sound actions organised in the context of the Tàpies Centenary Year\, with the collaboration of Pompeu Fabra University. The proposal focuses on the voice and words to create a sound accompaniment to oral memory. In this way\, each of the thirteen sessions will feature a creator whose starting point will be the chair\, taken as a performative object\, linking back to the creative universe of Tàpies through the expressive languages and settings of the present day. \n  \nEduard Escoffet is a poet and sound artist. He has published books of poetry a lot (2012)\, The earth and the sky (2013\, published in Spanish in 2018 with the title ground and sky) and Less and everything (2017)\, apart from the artist’s book Estramps with Evru (2012) and the poster-poem Plantation (2021)\, Carles Hac Mor award. In 2018 he was a finalist for the Prix Bernard Heidsieck\, awarded by the Center Pompidou and the Fondazione Bonotto. With the electronic band Bradien\, with whom he collaborated between 2009 and 2016\, he published the albums Pols (2012) and Scale (2015). He is currently a member of the group Barba Corsini\, with which he published the album in 2021 A new fire He is the author with Gianluca Abbate of the virtual reality film body inside (Italy\, 2019)\, winner of the Goethe Prize at the Zebra Poetry Film Festival in Berlin. \nIn 2022 he composed the piece Ode to the Walking Class for the German vocal group Sprechbohrer within the framework of the project The Poet’s Sound. In 2022\, the sound performance for tapes premiered in Barcelona. Utopia and slavery (piece for 25 mechanical voices)\, which could later be seen in Tarragona and Madrid. In 2023 he presented the double exhibition Growth and Degrowth by Howard Roark at Chiquita Room and The Green Parrot (Barcelona) and published the album of sound poetry and vocal improvisation Bastide\, published by Erratum (Paris) and Sonhoras (Barcelona). \n  \nT/H-partitura  \nA sound dialogue between Bernard Heidsieck and Antoni Tàpies \nEduard Escoffet |Length: about 25 min \nBetween 1959 and 1960\, Bernard Heidsieck composed Poème-partition T\, a sound poem dedicated to a painting by Tàpies\, who in those years was forging his career in the European gallery circuit\, and especially in Paris. As he had done earlier with paintings by Jean Degottex and other artists\, Heidsieck wrote and recorded with his tape recorder a poem that played with layering and the timbre of the voice\, and which was\, in the end\, an open dialogue with Tàpies. Heidsieck sent the poem to Tàpies\, but the painter never responded and their dialogue was cut short. \nT/H-partitura [T/H-score] thus seeks to activate this dialogue between the two creators. The resulting piece remakes the sound materials from the Heidsieck poem while adding features that create connections between the two poetics\, such as the chair\, the main theme of this series. It is a quadrophonic piece done with four cassette tapes and live voice\, conceived as well to dialogue with the museum building and the railway sounds that run through it. As in previous pieces by Escoffet\, such as Utopia i esclavatge [Utopia and Slavery] (La Capella\, 2022) and Echo and the Oracle (CCCB\, 2023)\, T/H-partitura experiments with vocal overlaying and physicality of the voice. In this case\, furthermore\, it explores common features between the work of Bernard Heidsieck and that of Tàpies. \nWhile they were never to have a creative dialogue between them\, there are many features that bring them close together. Both creators impregnate their works with reality—with objects\, in one case\, and with recordings from the street in the other. They manipulate materials—earth and paint in one case\, the recording tape itself in the other—and also go beyond the supports themselves—the canvas and the page\, respectively—in creating works that must be seen or listened to live\, putting the body front and centre\, whether in gesture or voice. Many poets have written about Tàpies\, but few have accomplished what Bernard Heidsieck did in shifting the essence of the artistic code of Tàpies to another support: he makes the painting anew by working with text and voice in a way that is true to Tàpies. T/H-partitura\, therefore\, is the reconstruction of these echoes.

SUMMARY:Can books be sorted by their smell?
DESCRIPTION:Books come in all shapes and sizes. How do you organise your books at home? Because of their smell? By their weight? \nWe are offering a morning of family activities in which to observe the physical characteristics of books\, such as smell\, weight\, size or colour. The book is an object full of letters\, syllables\, words\, sentences\, texts and photographs\, not always in the same language\, using different fonts and spellings\, of varied sizes and colours. We will play with all these elements to produce some creative writing in a quick and agile way. \nThis workshop is based on The Portable Library\, a travelling selection of books inspired by the Fundació Antoni Tàpies Library\, which specialises in modern and contemporary art. \nActivity conducted by Tantàgora

SUMMARY:Today is Tàpies: Maria Josep Balsach - Ariadna Guiteras
DESCRIPTION:Tickets\n \nOrganised by the Museu Tàpies as part of the Tàpies Centenary Year\, Today is Tàpies is a series of transgenerational and interdisciplinary conversations conducted and moderated by the cultural journalist Rita Roig. The aim is to interpret Tàpies’ texts as a starting point for reflecting on current issues such as ecology\, the right to self-determination\, interculturality and political commitment in art.The words and ideas of the artist will be revisited during a series of thirteen sessions\, with invited participants from different generations and diverse professional fields (culture\, education\, science\, politics\, environment\, health and human sciences) helping to construct a polyphonic story that will be collected in the form of a podcast. Thanks to the collaboration of Catalunya Ràdio\, the podcast will allow us to experience the generated knowledge in another format and in another context. \n  \nChapter 11: Body and Memory: Readings of Skin and Layers \n“I have sometimes joked that art applied to bodies can be a remedy for pain\,” wrote Antoni Tàpies. In his texts\, like many other artists\, he referred to the healing nature of art. Art is often claimed to heal the body (and even the mind): is this ability still useful in our context? Art\, which may seem like a contemplative\, mental activity\, always ends up passing through the body\, whether in the form of shivers due to Stendhal syndrome or in interaction with a work of art we have before us. So\, how is art related to corporeality? We will reflect on this with Maria Josep Balsach and Ariadna Guiteras. \n  \nPARTICIPANTS \nMaria Josep Balsach is an art historian and poet specialising in contemporary art\, specifically in Joan Miró. She has written numerous theoretical pieces on aesthetics and art in the 19th and 20th centuries from a multidisciplinary standpoint. She is currently director of the European Live Art Archive project and of the chair in contemporary art and culture at the University of Girona. She has worked as an art critic for the newspapers Avui\, El País and La Vanguardia. \n  \nAriadna Guiteras is a multidisciplinary artist who explores the limits of human and superhuman bodies and the relations of which they are constituted. She considers bodies as vulnerable\, open matter that is always related to other things\, whether the environment\, energies or data. Her work revolves around the ideas of control and performance we associate with bodies\, in relation to the social\, political and emotional context that surrounds them. Throughout her artistic process she relates materiality and immateriality\, gesture and memory\, touch and affect\, and her pieces therefore take the form of performances\, sculptures and installations. \n  \nToday is Tàpies programme \nPodcasts Today is Tàpies\, by Catalunya Ràdio. \n
