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: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).

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. Conversation: Activism in Contemporary Art\n11.30 h.            Imma Prieto (Director\, Museu Tàpies): Art activista i art polític\n11. 45 h.           Carles Guerra (Independent research): Art activista i art polític\n12h.                  Oliver Marchart\n12.25 h.           Laura Llevadot: questions and conclusions \n

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.

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
