El discreto encanto de la tecnologia. Artes en España

The Discreet Charm of Technology. Arts in Spain

availability unknown, if interested please write an email

The Accent on Spanish works is not merely a question pf geography; rather, the exhibition tries to establish a dialogue between creative practices and artists that had never before been brought together in the same space, at the same time.
(Spanish / English)

The exhibition links the 13th century to the 21st through a modular approach that focuses on five key themes representative of the artistic condition: the formal code; the visual code; the sensory and space-time code; the body and the identity; and the construction of reality. More than a hundred works by 65 artists weave the discursive thread within the context of each module. It is the conceptual link, rather than chronological or technical affinity, that links the five themes.
