SUMMARY:Segni mossi. PURPLE training
DESCRIPTION:Segni mossi is a research project created by Alessandro Lumare (visual artist) and Simona Lobefaro (choreographer) that focuses on the relationship between dance  – as a projection in space and the emergence of our emotional side – and drawing – as an extension of the body and action\, and as a means to trace the essence of experiences. \nIn this event\, Segni mossi is presenting its training PURPLE\, which is aimed at teachers\, artists\, educators and all those interested in art and education. The artists say that this training “tastes of bungee jumping\, light breeze\, and earthquake”. \n“We will be magnetic dances\, attractive colours. We will stretch movements\, release signs. We will bounce between tempera\, bodies\, and environments. We will be magma\, pumice\, lava. Invisible like the wind\, we will lift leaves\, trees\, and buildings. We will be traces in the storm”. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Stretch and scatter. Workshop for families with Segni mossi
DESCRIPTION:Activity canceled \n  \n \nA workshop where bodies trace elastic trajectories and let themselves be carried by invisible forces. We’ll play with movements that stretch and return\, then we’ll be swept away by the wind that moves objects\, people and marks. An experience for families\, between tension\, lightness and sudden storms. \nSegni mossi is a research project created by Alessandro Lumare (visual artist) and Simona Lobefaro (choreographer) that focuses on the relationship between dance  – as a projection in space and the emergence of our emotional side – and drawing – as an extension of the body and action\, and as a means to trace the essence of experiences.

SUMMARY:"La Quema" [The Burning]: New documentary about Elena del Rivero’s creative journey
DESCRIPTION:As the climax of the second Extramural art project\, Elena del Rivero. Transitar «La Quema» [Elena del Rivero: Transiting ‘The Burning’]\, the Museu Tàpies presents\, as part of the programme of the Barcelona Loop Festival\, the new documentary La Quema\, produced by Impro Films\, A Casa Do Pozo and The Paraclete\, in collaboration with Mateo Feijóo\, curator of the project Elena del Rivero: Transitar «La Quema». \nThe project La Quema follows Elena del Rivero’s journey and her earliest works\, created in the seventies and eighties\, from her studio in Madrid to the Galician village of San Pedro Fiz de Vilar. There\, the paintings were exhibited in domestic settings—houses\, stables\, the local church or school—before they were given up to the passing of time… or to the fire. Through the artist’s reflections\, the cooperation of the residents and the final ritual of the burning\, the film portrays a process of letting go\, memory and transformation\, in which loss becomes the beginning of a new creative stage. \nLike a diptych\, this documentary is presented together with O carro e o home [The Cart and the Man]\, an audiovisual that is part of the legacy left by the ethnographer from Ourense Xaquín Lorenzo\, Xocas\, to the Museo do Pobo Galego\, of which he was the founder and first chairman of the Board of Trustees. The original film—made in 1940\, scripted by Xocas and directed by Antonio Román—recounts the life of the cart as a symbol of traditional Galician material culture. A work strongly influenced by Soviet cinema and the work of Robert J. Flaherty whose actors and actresses are the residents of the hamlet of Facós\, in the Municipality of Lobeira (Ourense province)\, the birthplace of Xaquín Lorenzo. \nIn 1980\, starting from a copy that appeared at the Museo Arqueolóxico Provincial de Ourense and is kept at the Museou do Pobo Galego\, the ethnographer\, together with film-maker Eloy Lozano\, made a new cut with a less mock traditional soundtrack\, with text and voiceover by Xocas himself. This second version\, sponsored by the Museo do Pobo Galego\, was recently digitalised in cooperation with AGADIC (Axencia Galega das Industrias Culturais) and Filmoteca de Galicia. \nThe presentation of the documentary will be carried out by Mateo Feijóo. \n  \nCredits:  \n  \nLa Quema [The Burning] \nAuthors: Daniel Fuertes Perea\, Gabriel Jesús García Duque\, Gregorio Alejandro Blanco Rivas \nProduction: Impro Films \nYear: 2025 \nLength: 64 min \n  \nO carro e o home [The Cart and the Man] \n1940/1980\, Galicia\, 11 min\, original language \nProduction: P.A.C.E. \nDirector and photographer: Antonio Román \nScript: Xaquín Lorenzo and Antonio Román \nEditing: Antonio Román and Carlos Serrano de Osma \nNarrator: Ignacio Mateo \nSound: Laffon-Selgas \nLaboratory: Arroyo \n  \nO carro e o home [The Chart and the Man] (1980 cut) \nProduction: Praia Lenta Films and Museo do Pobo Galego \nRestoration: Eloy Lozano \nScript and editing: Xaquín Lorenzo and Eloy Lozano \nText and voiceover: Xaquín Lorenzo \nBackground music: Eloy Lozano

SUMMARY:Bella Báguena. Jardín de piel [Garden of Skin]
DESCRIPTION:A vulnerable aria\, a ritualistic conversation: she bleeds in front of her audience\, accompanied by witchy textures\, sublime atmospheres and ecstatic prayers. This Valencian artist’s confessional and autobiographical sound work narrates personal stories\, sometimes cryptically and sometimes very openly. \nLike a kind of contemporary folklore made up of disconnected and abstract stories\, Bella uses her raw\, operatic voice to address themes such as dissent\, bodily transitioning\, love and heartbreak\, ecstasy\, error and the unknown. She invites us—in the midst of Scorpio season—to a concert for lesbians and other sentient beings\, presenting an echographic exploration of her inner world\, her wanderings and paths\, her outbursts\, her obsessions and her emotional diary. \n  \nBella Báguena (València\, 1994) is a trans female artist who has worked in disciplines such as performance art and sculptural jewellery\, currently focusing on her musical project. Combining pop imagery\, internet culture and nature\, her work explores the link between body\, emotion and sonic experience\, seeking to establish an honest connection between artist and spectator. \nShe has presented her work at institutions such as La Casa Encendida (Madrid)\, CCCB (Barcelona) and Palais de Tokyo (Paris)\, as well as with the Kuboraum brand (New York). She has collaborated on projects by Lina Lapelytė and was a SHAPE 2023 artist. In 2024\, she completed a sound residency with A Comparative Dialogue Act for the 60th International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale (Luxembourg Pavilion). \n  \nA session within the framework of the second edition of the “Following the Sun” cycle\, curated by Gabriel Virgilio Luciani.

SUMMARY:Presentation of the book "Tàpies i jo. Una exegesi recíproca"\, by Rita Segato
DESCRIPTION:The Museu Tàpies hosts the public presentation of the book Tàpies i jo. Una exegesi recíproca\, which has arisen from the first edition of the International Essay Prize ‘Gestures of the Past\, Thought of the Present’. The ceremony features the participation of Rita Segato\, author of the publication; Imma Prieto\, director of the Museu Tàpies; and Pablo Allepuz\, curator of the collection. \nThe centennial of the birth of Antoni Tàpies (in 2023–2024) inaugurated a new stage in the manner his massive visual\, literary and institutional legacy is approached. Following on the experience of that commemorative year\, the museum has set up new structures for research and collaboration\, such as with the Antoni Tàpies – UPF Chair in Contemporary Art and Thought—developed with the Universitat Pompeu Fabra—and the Institute of Critical Derives\, encouraging interdisciplinary dialogue in inciting new ways of understanding the artist. This is the context of the International Essay Prize ‘Gestures of the Past\, Thought of the Present’\, which in each edition invites a theoretical to write an essay on Tàpies\, reflecting their own expertise and knowledge. \nThe first invitee was Rita Segato\, an internationally-recognised Argentine anthropologist and a key figure in feminist and decolonial thought. Free from the habitual conditions of artistic historiography\, her perspective offers a new reading of Tàpies. Segato shifts the image of an artist centred on the self—author of his own autobiography\, founder of the institution that bears his name—toward that self-questioning facet of Tàpies that is constantly shifting to a place outside of himself\, open to alterity and reflection on the other. This reciprocal exegesis between Segato and Tàpies sketches out connections between anthropology and art\, between matter and spirituality\, between ethics and aesthetics. In her essay\, the writer proposes seven ways to renew the study of Tàpies\, opening Tàpies studies up to new frameworks of understanding on identity\, belonging and the political meaning of creation. From a reading of gesture as a form of knowledge\, to the connection between historical memory and present-day struggles\, the book reveals Tàpies to be deeply contemporary\, able to continually give rise to critical thinking out of the here and now. \nPublished in Catalan and Spanish\, this work opens a new\, stable editorial line of activity on the part of the Museu Tàpies\, dedicated to the encouragement of research and the promotion of new perspectives on the artist’s work\, in dialogue with current debates in contemporary thought. \n  \n[Artwork: Antoni Tàpies\, Self Portrait\, 1992 © Comissió Tàpies / VEGAP\, 2025 ]

SUMMARY:Mireia Calafell. FE-RI-DES (WOUNDS)
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to think through wounds? What is it like to experience life through them? Can poets write about scars without using metaphors? Is it even worth trying? \n  \nThe beginning is marked by a chair placed next to another\, that is\, a meeting between friends and the opportunity to pronounce wounds. Mireia Calafell uses friendship as a means of talking and reflecting on scars through the reading of her own poems\, along with the words of others. She is joined by Fina Birulés\, Miquel Missé\, Pol Guasch and other voices who deserve to be heard when we talk about wounds. All this accompanied by another friend\, composer Clara Peya\, and her piano. \nThis activity is supported and endorsed by the Maria Canals International Piano Competition in Barcelona. As part of the second edition of the action cycle The chairs of Tàpies\, by Judith Barnés\, head of public programs at the Museu Tàpies. \n  \nMireia Calafell is a poet. She is the author of Poètiques del cos (2006)\, Costures (2010)\, Tantes mudes (2014)\, Nosaltres\, qui (2020) and Si una emergència (2024). She has received several awards\, including the Lletra d’Or for Best Book in 2014\, the Josep Maria Llopart Award for Best Poetry Collection Published in 2020 and the Carles Riba Award in 2023. Calafell is co-director of the La Sullivan cultural production company and was formerly co-director of the POESIA i + (2015–2016) and Barcelona Poesia (2018–2021) festivals. \nClara Peya is a pianist\, composer and one of the most unique creators of the Catalan music scene. With a career that fuses jazz\, pop\, and electronica\, she has released thirteen albums and has written numerous soundtracks for stage shows and cinema. Awarded the Premi Nacional de Cultura (2019)\, her work addresses issues such as feminism\, dissidence\, and vulnerability with great poetic and scenic power. \n  \nA collaboration with the Maria Canals International Piano Competition \nAntoni Tàpies had an ongoing relationship with music throughout his career. His interest included contemporary music—which he was close to on an intellectual and creative level—and musical practice\, understood as a universal language of communication. It was not fortuitous that Tàpies worked in collaboration with various initiatives where music and the arts were in dialogue\, such as those organised by Club 49\, a key space for the promotion of the artistic avant-garde in postwar Barcelona. \nAs part of the current collaboration between the Museu Tàpies and the Maria Canals Competition\, for three days (November 28\, 29 & 30\, 2025) a piano from the event will be installed inside the exhibition Antoni Tàpies: The Imagination of the World\, in dialogue with the broad presentation of invitations for cultural activities organised by Club 49. The proximity between the piano and these documents makes it possible to delve more deeply into the ambience of creative exchange Tàpies found himself in\, as well as into the role played in it by contemporary music. \nIn parallel with the recovery of democracy\, Tàpies sought to intensify his participation in cultural and social projects by creating posters\, which he considered an accessible form of communication. This is the context of the poster the artist created for the 50th anniversary of the Maria Canals International Piano Competition\, which arose out of his personal connection with the Barcelona music scene. Tàpies’ involvement was made possible due to the mediation of the Gaspar Farreras family and Galeria Gaspar\, in particular through Elvira Farreras de Gaspar and her daughter Elvira Gaspar Farreras. The friendship between Tàpies and the musician Rossend Llates\, the husband of pianist Maria Canals\, is seen in the poster with the initials R. LL. on it\, which likewise features those of the competition’s founder. \nIn the museum gallery we find Tàpies’ original artwork from which the poster was printed\, making it possible to place the work in its context: dialogue between the visual arts and music\, complicity between creators and cultural institutions\, and the role of Tàpies as an artist closely aligned with the social and cultural fabric of the Catalonia of his time. \n  \n[Photography by Àlex Espuny]
