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:2nd edition of the Teresa Barba Critical Writing Competition
DESCRIPTION:Antoni Tàpies. Cartes per a la Teresa\, 1974. Lithography. © Comissió Tàpies / VEGAP. Photography: © Lluís Bover\, 2024. \n  \nThe Museu Tàpies is announcing the second edition of the art criticism text competition aimed at students from upper primary school to university degrees and higher education courses. \nThe aim is to enhance the students’ critical thinking through a dialogue with the work of Antoni Tàpies that will inspire them to analyse today’s society and the world around us; to encourage students to express themselves through writing; and to connect a young public with the work\, thought and concerns of Antoni Tàpies\, which are unquestionably a bridge to thinking about our own times and a vindication of a less anthropocentric worldview. \nThe competition starts from the idea of written art criticism based on a personal interpretation of the work of art counterposed with the present day. It is about making the selected work dialogue with elements from the outside world. Art criticism is\, therefore\, an attitude or position towards life that interrogates and questions everything that happens around us. \nThe evaluation of the texts will take into account: linguistic\, expressive and analytical maturity; a free interpretation of the work of Antoni Tàpies; and the connections made between that work and the social\, cultural and political context of the moment. \nBASES\nPARTICIPANTS\n\nStudents who\, during the 2023–24 academic year\, are attending the last year of primary school\, up to secondary school and Baccalaureate level\, and intermediate vocational training.\nParticipation may be individual or collective\, bearing in mind only one prize will be awarded per category.\n\nWORK\n\nEach student or group may submit a single original and unpublished text\, written in Catalan\, Spanish or English and which has not received a prize in any other competition.\nThe text must be between 200 and 1\,000 words in length.\nIt is essential that the text has a title and specifies to which work or group of works by Antoni Tàpies it refers.\n\n  \nPREPARATION \nThe call for the competition will be accompanied by meetings with teaching staff interested in participating\, leading to visits to the Museum with their students. In order to further facilitate a closer knowledge of the work of Antoni Tàpies\, the Museu Tàpies will be organising discussions at the Museum\, sending information\, etc.\, thus providing full support to enable the school to make the competition a core of its curriculum. The Museu Tàpies will also be providing three training modules spread throughout the year aimed at teaching staff. These modules are designed to help teachers articulate the competition in the classroom\, while deepening an understanding of the work of the artist and the need to contextualise it the present. In addition\, people over the age of sixteen who want to visit the museum or library to prepare for the competition can request free access by sending an email to: concurs@museutapies.org  \n\nREGISTRATION AND DOCUMENTATION\nStudents’ texts should be sent by email to: concurs@museutapies.org  \nIndicate in the subject box: 1st art criticism competition for students at the Museu Tàpies. \nThe following documentation must be attached: \n-File with the details of the student or group of students\, including: name\, age\, academic year\, name of the school and name and contact of the reference teacher. \n-Both the texts and the file must be sent in PDF format. \n\nSUBMISSION DEADLINE\nMay 11\, 2025. \n  \nAWARDS\nA total of three prizes of vouchers of 300 € in books for each of the following three categories: \n\nPrize of 300 € for the winner of the upper primary level\, and publication of the text.\nPrize of 300 € for the winner of the secondary school level (ESO)\, and publication of the text.\nPrize of 300 € for the winner of Baccalaureate and vocational training level\, and publication of the text.\nPrize of  €300 for the winner of university degrees and higher education training courses and publication of the text.\n\nAt the end of the competition there will be a public presentation of the winning and finalist texts that will take place at the Museu Tàpies\, with a reading of the winning texts\, and the jury’s comments.

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

SUMMARY:The Background of Things
DESCRIPTION:Arranged on a table\, objects are raised and the table gets raised by the objects. A performer (Marc Caellas) reads a selection of poetic texts accompanied by the movement of a dancer (Corinne Spitalier). Each thing is a message\, a pulse that reveals itself\, a hatch in the void.  \nWe activate these power objects with words and movement. Drawings\, stickers\, cards\, masks\, things that flame up to the edge of their limits and inwards\, towards their hopeful core. They seduce us. \nThis is the first activation of the serie A Hatch in the Void proposed by Marc Caellas as part of the exhibition Antoni Tàpies: The Imagination of the World.

SUMMARY:A Horizontal Spin
DESCRIPTION:  \n‘Strategically place the palm of your hand on the chair\, lean it at a 30° angle and spin it at a constant speed. Energetic turns\, physically identical in time and pace\, a motorised mantra which ever since I was young led me to a state of instantaneous calm\, like a secret domestic exercise. Reviving this idea of the spinning chair as a gesture that expands and visualises the loop; repetition and concentration as the structural features of all melodies.’ \nFito Conesa opens the second edition of the series The Chairs of Tàpies by returning to childhood\, proposing a musical exercise of spinning based on the voice\, with repetitive structures that are effectively the sonorous foundation for the unpredictable. Repetition as a background\, where the temporal features that inhabit it arise naturally. Voice\, spinning\, song and movement. A gesture to musical practice which\, from concrete music or sound performance\, also celebrates space\, the architectures that inhabit it and the sounds these spaces postulate. \nThis action features vocal collaborations from: Claudia Scheider\, Erika Michie and Enrikson. \n  \nFito Conesa has a degree in Fine Arts from the University of Barcelona. His work is found in museum collections\, such as MACBA\, and in institutional collections like Col·lecció Banc Sabadell and the University of Granada. Conesa’s work has been exhibited in various museums\, art centres and festivals\, including La Casa Encendida in Madrid\, Matadero Madrid\, CaixaForum and MACBA\, amongst others. \nIn 2022 Conesa received the Alfonso X Prize (Región de Murcia) in the category of new media\, and was awarded the Video Creation Prize\, organised by the Visual Arts Spaces of Catalonia\, the Santa Mònica art centre\, the Catalan Ministry of Culture and Loop Festival.

SUMMARY:The Chairs of Tàpies. Second Edition
DESCRIPTION:The second edition of the action art series The Chairs of Tàpies\, subtitled Tattooed Memories\, embraces two lines of inquiry: memory and the body\, drawing from the idea of the trace that leaves its mark\, and the legacy on the skin\, as if it were a scar. These two features\, whose character draws from Tàpies\, act as a narrative\, making it possible to connect universes of the past with worlds of the present\, thus creating a living archive of experiences\, memories and identities. \nWithin this framework\, the body is understood beyond its physicality; it is granted a symbolic sense which\, as with skin\, is a reflection of stories and experiences. In this way\, each of these actions in the series makes it possible to explore how the body recollects\, stores and transforms individual and collective experiences in physical and emotional memory\, and how these memories emerge and communicate through performance and movement. By including the gesture\, the series emphasises the fleeting presence of the body in time and space\, and celebrates how recollections are upheld and updated through it\, in continual reinterpretation of the present. \nThe set of nine sessions features a polyphony of expressive languages\, where the voice and movement take on a new dimension\, out of the express need to question corporeality. Bodies charged with stories and absences\, weighted down; bodies imprisoned in what they have to be\, what they want to be\, in what they were; bodies that are not bodies\, bodies that are only bodies\, bodies calling out for bodies. The biography of the body. \n  \nThe programme of the second edition of the action art series The Chairs of Tàpies\, subtitled Tattooed Memories\, has been curated by Judith Barnés. \n  \nProjected programme:  \n27/3/25:  Fito Conesa \n24/4/25: Laia Estruch \n29/5/25: Matria Libre – Arte sin fronteras \n26/6/25: Esther Ferrer \n17/7/25: Benvenuto Chavajay \n25/9/25: Joan Morey \n30/10/25: Leonor Castro \n27/11/25: Mireia Calafell \n18/12/25: Mónica Valenciano \n  \nPrevious edition 2024 \n  \nSala de Reflexió (detail)\, by Antoni Tàpies\, Universitat Pompeu Fabra\, Barcelona. © Museu Tàpies.
