SUMMARY:Museu Habitat: II International Meeting Countering Abysses. Poetics of Scale 2025
DESCRIPTION:With two years of experience\, the Museu Habitat program has opened several spaces for reflection\, exchange\, production and experimentation around the history and current affairs of the museum institution. The Museu Habitat has been built as a protean organism that seeks to bring together different types of communities and generate non-consensual spaces. The task of mobilizing meetings and actions has been carried out by a diverse team of artists\, curators\, activists and managers\, which includes the research and mediation collectives Entrar Afuera\, IDRA and Transductores. \nThe set of initiatives deployed has been complemented by two meetings and an exhibition. The first meeting\, “Which museum?”\, held in May 2024\, started from a question that represents the germ of the program: which museum is possible and desirable today? And in 50 years? The second\, “Turning spells”\, stated that today it is no longer possible to reflect on the institution exclusively from its own foundations\, be they physical or conceptual. Thinking and acting only from what happens within this normative building leads to inevitable sensory and epistemological frustration. For its part\, through more than 120 works\, the exhibition “Fabular paisatges” reflected on how exhibition devices are constructed\, which stories are privileged and which stories are silenced. In line with these two meetings and taking into account the polarization that Fabular paisatges aroused\, the Habitat Museum opens a new moment of synthesis and possible reformulations based on the seminar “Contrariar abisms. Poetics of scale”. \nIn December 2024\, an assembly was held at the CAP Gornal\, organized by the Entrar Afuera collective and mediated by Ràdio Nikosia\, in which social and institutional agents converged. In this assembly\, the notion of vertigo was taken as a clinical space\, of personal experience and institutional challenge\, from which to rethink roles and provoke experiences. In this sense\, the general impotence that we all feel in the face of war\, inequality\, racism\, gender violence and the devastation of nature\, seems to lead us irremediably into the abyss\, but at the same time it calls us\, definitively\, to resistance. This is posed as an urgent need. \nIn this context\, the Habitat Museum proposes a dynamic of work on multiple scales\, ranging from micro to macro and vice versa\, and which delves into the interstices\, into undefined options\, that is\, into what is located between gesture and action\, between the personal and the social\, between discourse and affections. \n“Contrariar abismes. Poetics of scale” unfolds from three conceptual axes: exhibiting\, narrating\, fable-making. Exhibiting and narrating are two of the intrinsic tasks of the museum and both work in constant interaction. The decisions about what and how is exhibited construct a story that can and must be questioned permanently. In turn\, fable-making is thought of here as a way of imagining other forms of narrating\, but also as an exercise in confrontation with what has been fabled. \nIn this sense\, the meeting seeks to resume and open up questions\, contradictions and proposals with the aim of generating escape routes that can give rise to the necessary transformative movements and the construction of other spaces and ways of doing things. \n  \nDownload the programme.

SUMMARY:New vinyl of the series Tàpies’ Chairs 2024
DESCRIPTION:The Museu Tàpies presents the vinyl curated from the first edition of the series Tàpies’ Chairs\, a collection of sound actions that took place as part of Tàpies Year. The first edition of this multidisciplinary series\, brought together proposals by artists who worked with voice\, spoken word and oral memory\, using the Tàpies universe as a starting point for performative experimentation. \nActions\, developed as part of the centenary of the artist’s birth\, were created specifically for the museum and displayed diverse languages\, ranging from music to text and gesture to sound\, from unique perspectives. The first edition of the Tàpies’ Chairs series included the participation of MUOM\, Félix Denuit\, Biel Mesquida\, Itziar Okáriz\, Cabosanroque\, Joana Gomila\, Bartolomé Ferrando\, Blanca Llum Vidal and Los Sara Fontán\, Hugo Gómez-Chao Porta\, Amidea Clotet (Cicle Difraccions)\, Eduard Escoffet\, Mal Pelo and Niño de Elche. \nThe publication of this record responds to the desire to give continuity and permanence to a project designed to be experienced live. Capturing part of it on a physical medium such as vinyl\, allows you to listen from a more intimate place\, while prolonging the evocative power of the sound performances. By doing this\, the Museu Tàpies reaffirms the value of listening and the sound archive\, as active forms of transmitting artistic memory. \nAs part of the presentation\, there will be an audition of the vinyl and the presence of some of the guest artists. In addition\, anyone who wants to purchase the vinyl on this occasion will enjoy a special price of 25 euros (the official price is 30 euros). \nWithin the framework of Càtedra Antoni Tàpies – UPF d’Art i Pensament Contemporanis. \n

SUMMARY:Rhythm and Substances
DESCRIPTION:As part of the exhibition Antoni Tàpies: The Imagination of the World\, the Museu Tàpies presents the third activation in the cycle A Hatch in the Void\, a series of events conceived by writer Marc Caellas to activate the materials presented in the exhibition\, highlighting the epochal spirit in which we find ourselves. \nThis time\, Caellas invites guitarist and improviser Juanma Trujillo to share a poetry and music recital that revisits the spirit of the historic evenings of the Club 49\, a group of artists and intellectuals who\, in the forties and fifties\, renewed the cultural scene in Barcelona with talks\, recitals and avant-garde actions. \nThe duet will recall essential voices of 20th-century poetry\, such as Carlos Edmundo de Ory\, Joan Perucho\, J. V. Foix and Juan Eduardo Cirlot\, establishing a living dialogue between word and sound. Reading and music will make up a shared space for discovery and experimentation\, true to the transgressive spirit that characterised the Club 49 and to the way Antoni Tàpies saw art: as a constant questioning and as a window on the world. \nThis event offers the audience an intimate\, immersive experience\, one that invites listening in a different way\, letting oneself be surprised and inhabiting a space where poetry and music not only meet\, but enrich one another.

SUMMARY:Opening of the exhibition: Germaine Dulac. Je n’ai plus rien
DESCRIPTION:Opening of the exhibition Germaine Dulac. Je n’ai plus rien\, curated by Imma Prieto\, director of the Museu Tàpies\, and Imma Merino\, film critic and university professor. The event will take place on Thursday\, October 16\, 2025\, at 7:00 p.m.\, at the Museu Tàpies (Carrer de Aragó\, 255\, Barcelona). \nGermaine Dulac. Je n’ai plus rien is the first monographic exhibition dedicated to Germaine Dulac (Amiens\, 1882 – Paris\, 1942) in the catalan and spanish context. The exhibition is based on a selection of films\, texts\, and archival materials—some previously unpublished—that allow us to explore the complexity of the cinematographic work of this prominent filmmaker and theorist of the avant-garde art. It also introduces the viewer to French cinematic impressionism\, close to a certain narrative cinema\, and facilitates the analysis of the critical tensions toward the heteropatriarchal hierarchies of her time\, as well as experimental and documentary cinema from the end of her career. \nThe exhibition revisits more than thirty years of her career and offers a rigorous reflection on cinema\, image\, and the vindication of the female figure. It also reminds us of the eternal return of history and constitutes a denunciation of the rise of nationalism and the far right. \nThe retrospective expands with a film programme at the Filmoteca de Catalunya (from October 1 to November 23) and with the publication of the book Germaine Dulac. ¿Qué es el cine? (Wunderkammer / Museu Tàpies\, 2025)\, which brings together\, for the first time in Spanish\, the filmmaker’s writings and lectures. \nAdmission to the general opening is free and requires no prior reservation.

SUMMARY:Venus Jasper: Weeping Swamp
DESCRIPTION:Multidisciplinary artist\, Venus Jasper\, weaves together a new live performance stemming from their ongoing research Wetlands Worship; an exploration of swamp sentiments\, climate grief\, queerness and sacred ecologies. Born from speculative fiction modalities of storytelling and narrative deconstruction\, the sonic aspect of the performance includes many samples of water\, insects and metal\, paired with a noise machine and haunting vocals. This future-facing folklore speaks of a rotting\, turbulent sea and a journey to a mythic swamp-island where decay is sacred and rage has its rituals.  \nThe artist based in Amsterdam\, NL has received travel support from the Mondriaan Fund and will develop the piece during a week-long residency at Graner; an experimental movement and dance center in Barcelona where they will also spend time to investigating and queering the legacy of the Aloja and the Encantades—water spirits in Catalan folklore. \nVenus Jasper (they/he) is a queer visual artist\, singer-performer\, educator\, writer and curator – currently based in Amsterdam. In their counter-cultural and ritualistic work they envision spirited and sensuous post-capitalisms that spell the decolonization of the Anthropocene\, rekindle more-than-human kinship\, and forward (neuro)-queer and trans-historic perspectives on ecology\, folklore\, contemporary culture\, spirituality and the self. \nA session within the framework of the 2nd edition of the “Following the Sun 2025” cycle\, curated by Gabriel Virgilio Luciani.

SUMMARY:Maladruà\, with Estel Boada and Xavier Michel
DESCRIPTION:“Maladruà” is “maladroit.” It means “clumsy” in French. However\, the interpretation of languages ​​and codes from different regions always plays a clumsy role when it comes to establishing immediate connections. \nEstel Boada (Catalonia)\, singer and multidisciplinary artist\, together with Xavier Michel (France)\, poetic performer of the absurd\, will introduce us to the universe of André du Colombier through a perspective filled with humor\, linguistic play\, and experimentation with space. \nThe Maladruà activity is part of the RELÉ program of the ARTefACTe5 conference\, a CLUB9 project promoting contemporary French performance. With the support of Espai nyamnyam. \n  \nXavier Michel (Poitiers\, 1990) holds a degree in Systems Engineering and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Villa Arson in Nice. For several years\, he has developed a performative work in which he manipulates tool-sculptures in absurd and poetic productions. His practice draws on object theater\, circus\, dance\, and music\, giving rise to a polysemic and sensitive language. In recent months\, he has been working in Barcelona\, ​​where his work finds resonance and a certain affinity with the local art scene. He is currently in residency at Hangar-org. \nEstel Boada (Barcelona\, ​​1991)\, singer and multidisciplinary artist\, defines herself as a contextual juggler. With a background in Fine Arts\, she explores space\, community\, and voice through performance. Her work\, marked by humor and absurdity with touches of fantasy\, burlesquely reflects on her life as a “frustrated diva.” Interested in experimental education\, contextual art\, sound\, music\, and drawing\, she uses action and humor as tools of critique. She has participated in numerous interdisciplinary art interventions and curated self-organized contemporary art series. She is also a composer and vocalist for various musical projects. \n  \nAndré du Colombier. A Lyrical Point of View. Installation view. Photo: Eva Guillamet
