Gloria Martín Montaño a través de la mirada de Sema d'Acosta en XTRart
2014Aunque a primera vista el trabajo de Gloria Martín Montaño (Alcalá de Guadaíra, Sevilla, 1980) puede parecer sencillo –un rasgo que por su franqueza ya de inicio resulta tremendamente cautivador-, si nos adentramos con atención en su obra descubrimos un proyecto pictórico y conceptual de mucho calado... leer más

31.10.2015Esta exposición en CIRCLE1 presenta la obra de un conjunto de artistas residentes en Berlín, alemanes e israelíes, en el contexto de un diálogo cultural. Los trabajos de estos artistas nos hablan de asuntos similares reflejados desde diferentes perspectivas. Este juego de miradas se plantea, incluso, en el nombre de la propia exposición; así como también en su fecha de inauguración: “Viernes13”. En particular, el número 13 puede ser interpretado como un número infortunado pero también se puede considerar el número de la suerte y siempre dependerá de los antecedentes culturales y del contexto histórico desde el que partamos. Así pues, el significado del título de la exposición implica diferentes modos de interpretación que surgen de diversos puntos de partida culturales, políticos, artísticos. Y siempre mostrando sus contradicciones, paradojas y contrastes. En esta exposición comisariada por Hannah Beck-Mannagetta, participan artistas como Yinon Avior, Alexandra Baumgartner, benandsebastian, Matti Isan Blind, Noa Gur, Ronit Porat, J&K/Janne Scha¨fer and Kristine Agergaard, Johannes Vogl , Ulrich Vogl y Ella Littwitz. Inauguración: Viernes, 13 de noviembre de 2015, a las 19h. Exposición: 14 de noviembre de 2015 - 19 de diciembre de 2015, Jueves–Sábado, 12 – 18h CIRCLE1 Mittenwalder Straße 47, 10961 Berlín, Alemania

2015Salón de lo Intocable es un proyecto que recrea un espacio expositivo del periodo de vanguardias, presentando en un display una serie de obras que, en clave post, deconstruyen y reformulan algunas obras de la modernidad desde prácticas del do it yourself y del objet trouvé, como prácticas populares y accesibles al gran público. El proyecto pretende, desde un cuestionamiento del cubo blanco, hacer una relectura a nivel personal de algunos ítems de la modernidad, eliminando su aura y recreando de manera crítica algunos formalismos y concepciones de este periodo.

Gloria Martín participa en la muestra ¿Qué sienten, qué piensan los artistas andaluces de ahora?, organizada por el Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo (CAAC) de Sevilla
26.11.2016Rafael Alberti en “Balada para los poetas andaluces de hoy”, publicado en Ora marítima seguido de baladas y canciones del Paraná (1953), se hacía una serie de preguntas sobre los poetas andaluces de entonces: ¿qué cantan, qué miran, qué sienten? Partiendo de este planteamiento, de nuevo ahora, modificando levemente las preguntas y sustituyendo poetas por artistas, parece necesario interrogarse sobre qué pensar y qué sentir en un contexto difícil, de crisis y en transformación. ¿Qué sienten, qué piensan los artistas andaluces de ahora? Esta es la pregunta que se han hecho a sí mismos los comisarios de esta muestra, inaugurada el pasado 17 de noviembre. En esta exposición colectiva, todos los artistas participantes nacieron a partir de 1980, todos son andaluces o con residencia en esta comunidad y, algo importante, todos ellos han creado proyectos que han sido producidos expresamente para esta muestra. Entre ellos, encontramos “Almacén” la obra creada por nuestra artista Gloria Martín (Alcalá de Guadaira, Sevilla, 1980). Un mural en el que la artista ha recreado el pasillo de la crujía Sur, uno de los espacios de almacenaje del propio CAAC. A través de este trampantojo, Gloria Martín ha planteado un diálogo entre el espacio y el medio pictórico que conduce a cuestionarse y reflexionar, de manera crítica, sobre la realidad que nos rodea. A Gloria Martín le interesa todo aquello que tiene que ver con el objeto artístico y el marco contextual, situacional e institucional de la obra de arte. Por ello, su trabajo pictórico parte del universo museístico y la sacralización del objeto artístico como vestigio contemporáneo y reflexiona sobre su significado, historia y modo de contextualización. Además de Gloria Martín, también participan en la exposición ¿Qué sienten, qué piensan los artistas andaluces de ahora?: Julia Llerena (Sevilla, 1985), Cristina Mejías (Jerez de la Frontera, 1986), José Iglesias Gª-Arenal (Madrid, 1991), José Jurado (Córdoba, 1984), Daniel Silvo (Cádiz, 1982), Javier Artero (Melilla, 1989), Leonor Serrano Rivas (Málaga, 1986) y Fuentesal&Arenillas (Huelva, 1986 y Cádiz, 1989).

Martinho Costa muestra sus obras más recientes en “Layer 0”, exposición organizada por la Galería 111 de Lisboa
12.11.2016“El artista Martinho Costa presenta en la Galería 111 de Lisboa, sus más recientes trabajos en la exposición titulada Layer 0. En esta ocasión, el artista nos ofrece imágenes pictóricas extrañas que parecen haber sido cifradas. La pintura realista, a la que el artista nos ha acostumbrado en el pasado, ahora está inmersa en un proceso digital de enmascaramiento que construye una realidad indescifrable. Al añadir Photoshop ™, la herramienta digital de tratamiento de imágenes; el pintor potencia, por un lado, la construcción de nuevas imágenes y, por otro, el juego a través de la elección de corte, fotogramas, color, fondo, transparencias, y otras manipulaciones. Sin embargo, estas opciones no se fijan en formato digital; en el paso de la imagen al lenguaje pictórico, el artista continúa trabajando sobre la transformación de las mismas. Creando nuevas relaciones, exageradas o atenuadas, entre los diversos elementos que componen la imagen fija de la que ha partido. Estas piezas están compuestas por imágenes rescatadas de la realidad existente (fotografías de paisajes, personas, objetos, etc.), pero también se comportan como patrones geométricos similares a los de las tejas o ladrillos decorativos que han sido producidos digitalmente.“ Texto basado en un extracto del texto original Hugo Dinis. Layer 0. Del 12 de noviembre al 31 de diciembre de 2016 Galería 111 Campo Grande, 113. 1700 - 089 Lisboa Horario de visita: De martes a sábado, de 10 a 19h.

Ella Littwitz participa en la exposición colectiva “Fragmented Time” organizada por la galería neoyorquina Catinca Tabacaru
30.06.2016“Fragmented Time” es la exposición colectiva comisariada por Rachel Monosov, en la que se muestra la obra de 4 artistas internacionales como son Ella Littwitz (Israel), Rachel Monosov (Israel), Benjamin Verhoeven (Bélgica) y Reijiro Wada (Japón). En ella, se recogen trabajos y proyectos que son, en realidad, experimentos en los que el tiempo es congelado, reconstruido, resucitado e incluso falseado. En el caso de Whistle (2013), la obra presentada por Ella Littwitz, el espectador puede oír las capas de historia que han quedado archivadas en un material físico, en este caso, una grabación en vinilo perteneciente a la época de la postguerra. El punto de inicio de este trabajo es el hallazgo de una pieza de vinilo roto en la excavación de Tempelhof que, tras ser examinada por la artista, reveló fragmentos de palabras en inglés procedentes de emisiones del ejército americano realizadas durante la postguerra. Partiendo de la forma del fragmento de vinilo encontrado en Tempelhof, Littwitz creó un nuevo vinilo que tiene como resultado una grabación de 8:19 minutos en la que, efectivamente, la artista resucita el sonido original permitiendo que el espectador oiga los fragmentos supervivientes llegados desde un punto negro de nuestra historia más reciente. Fragmented Time Del 29 de junio al 7 de agosto de 2016 Galería Catinca Tabacaru 250 Broome Street New York, NY 10002 Horario: De Miércoles a Domingo, de 11h a 18h.

Martinho Costa inaugura la exposición individual “Casal da Cega in Dub” en la Galería Vera Cruz (Aveiro, Portugal)
09.06.2016El pasado 21 de Mayo de 2016, Martinho Costa inauguró “Casal da Cega in Dub” en la Galería Vera Cruz, ubicada en Aveiro (Portugal). En este proyecto, el concepto “Dub” es utilizado por el artista como una idea básica de la que partir para generar y producir nuevas imágenes pictóricas. Del mismo modo que un mezclador musical fusiona diferentes piezas, ritmos y sonidos; Martinho presenta una serie de pinturas en las que combina soportes como fragmentos de cemento encontrados o el lienzo. Las imágenes de las que parte Costa para realizar estas piezas son fotografías digitales tomadas en la cantera llamada “Casal da Cega” (ubicada en la Sierra de Aire –Portugal-). Imágenes que son posteriormente intervenidas y transformadas digitalmente para, más tarde, sufrir un último proceso de traducción al lenguaje pictórico. Martinho Costa en estas obras continúa, por tanto, con su proceso de investigación y experimentación basado en la imagen intervenida; un proceso ya planteado en anteriores proyectos como “Baixas Frequências” (expuesto en Galería silvestre_Tarragona entre los meses de febrero y abril de este mismo año, 2016). Casal da Cega in Dub Del 21 de Mayo al 7 de Julio de 2016 Galería Vera Cruz Rua Eng. Oudinot, 45 3800-174 Aveiro Horario: De martes a viernes, de 10:00-12:30 y de 14:30-19:30 Sábado, 10:00-13:00 y de 14:30-18:30
La obra de Luísa Jacinto toma el espacio de la Casa-Museu Medeiros e Almeida

A través de su instalación, la artista ocupa el contexto del museo subversivamente, dialogando con el espacio de la casa e invernadero, en cuanto a espacios llenos de vida. Extendiendo su instalación por las diferentes habitaciones de esta institución, Jacinto va estableciendo diversas relaciones de descubrimiento y recontextualización a medida que el observador va topándose con las intervenciones que componen este proyecto. Por otro lado, en cada edición del ciclo expositivo “Estufa”, se publica un cuaderno de artista. En este caso, el visitante podrá adquirir Nuvens, una composición creada por Luísa Jacinto partiendo de la reproducción de diferentes nubes tomadas de algunas de las piezas que forman parte de la colección de la Fundación Medeiros e Almeida y que se encuentran expuestas en su Casa-Museo actualmente.

Irene González is one of the selected artists in the fifth edition of CREADORES 2018: the Artistic Residence Program which takes place at La Térmica in Málaga
20.12.2017Last week, was announced the name of the 6 selected artists who will form part of the fifth edition of the Artistic Residence Program CREADORES 2018.
Between February and June 2018, this scholarship, awarded by the Centro de Cultura Contemporánea de la Diputación de Málaga, enables the artists to develop
their proposed projects at the seat of this institution: La Térmica
In this edition, the artists have been selected from over 215 proposals. Among those selected artists we find Ernesto Casero, Enar de Dios, Marco Moreira, Mirimari
Väyrynen, Alejandro Ginés and our artist, Irene González.
The project proposed by Irene González is entitled “El eterno retorno. Una aproximación desde el dibujo”. In early February, our artist will move to Málaga in
order to begin her scholarship period. This scholarship will allow her, not only stay in La Térmica and receive an economic support, but also have personal meetings
with cultural agents from Málaga and, in June 2018, take part in the group exhibition which will be organized to show the projects implemented by all of the 6
selected artists.
Luísa Jacinto’s works will be exhibited in a solo show at Fundação Portuguesa das Comunicações
07.12.2017Next December 12lve, “(podemos sempre fugir de carro)” will be opened. This is the solo show where the artist Luisa Jacinto
will show her new project at Fundação Portuguesa das Comunicações in Lisboa.
The exhibition, which will run until January 20th 2018, is the result of the collaboration between Fundação Portuguesa das Comunicações and Galería Bessa Pereira.
Sérgio Fazenda Rodrigues describes Luísa Jacinto’s project by saying:
“Between the edge and the cloud there is a limit that is blurred. In the threshold between the compartment and the landscape, between what is built and what is manifest,
there is a subtle field that can be named. It is a field of balance and seduction, between the will to retain (or frame) and the yearn to leave (or contemplate).
Luísa Jacinto’s work focuses on this field, that can be that of art, or of cinema, or architecture but, first of all, of life itself. Her works are, then, excerpts of something bigger,
groping for the real and questioning the boundary between what is pointed at and what is manifest.
Jacinto’s painting happens in the threshold of abstraction, even if in a slow speed and, sometimes, warm, as in the American Go West imaginary, where the limit is always beyond
the end of the path.”

Gloria Martín takes part in “El 85% de la matèria”, curated by Caterina Almirall
28.11.2017Last November 23th, the group exhibition
“El 85% de la matèria” was opened at the Centre d’Art Maristany in San Cugat del Vallès.
This show, organised with the collaboration of Museu d’Arqueologia de Catalunya and Hangar (Barcelona), is the result of
Caterina Almirall curatorship, according to which “the 85% of the matter is all that we don’t know, all
that we can’t see but we can imagine. This exhibition (…) explores all that is produced in the superposition of the research of remains and plausible evidences, and the invention
at the service of imagination. In this show, the artists explore the mechanisms with which we imagine - we give image - to what that cannot be seen.”
One of the participant artists in this show is Gloria Martín who, through her pictorial work, produces an
incisive and personal glance over some archaeological remains.
This exhibition is on show until February 26th 2018 at Centre Maristany at Sant Cugat del Vallès.
Luísa Jacinto takes part in the project raum: residências artísticas online
28.11.2017raum: residências artísticas online is an online platform hosting residencies of artists, with the support of structures active
in the domains of artistic creation, teaching and diffusion.
The art fields considered are photography and visual arts, film, architecture, graphic design, music and sound art.
Their partners are invited to start creative processes to be materialized in the guest artists' proposals: investigative texts, visual and audio essays and art work
specifically developed for the platform.
From November 6h to December 10th 2017, the exhibited residency on raum: is Stuck on, a project created by Luísa Jacinto
and curated by Jürgen Bock.
Luísa Jacinto’s work is rooted in painting research, through an experimental process from which result paintings, drawings, installations, videos.
Stuck on is made in the context of an online residency - the invitation to produce work meant to be online and live, a piece
for the screen. In video graphic support, Stuck on addresses, on the one hand, the multiple failures of the screen as a tool and physical surface of distribution and, on the
other hand, the stubborn request of painting’s material support – for more time.
“Notas de Campo”, a documentary directed by Catarina Botelho, is one of the films selected in the 7th edition of Márgenes Film Festival
16.11.2017The documentary “Notas de Campo” directed by our artist Catarina Botelho, is one of the films selected in the 7th
edition of Márgenes Film Festival, to be held from November 23rd to December 23th 2017.
“Notas de Campo" arises from the need to understand the period of austerity policies in Portugal, which began in 2011. It stems from a search that takes the shape of a journey
during which two women share their life experiences and their thoughts on those years: how they changed their lives and political views. A generational gaze on that specific
time, on a route towards the South, from Portugal to the Sahara desert – a movement of taking distance: a breath.
If you would like to attend the presentation of this documentary, you have the possibility to do it in Barcelona and Madrid:
In Madrid, on Friday, November 24th (at 9:30 p.m.) at Casa Encendida.
In Barcelona, on Thursday, November 30th (at 07:15 p.m.) at Zumezeig.
Save the date!
Here you have the teaser of “Notas de Campo”, a documentary directed by Catarina Botelho:
Ella Littwitz takes part in the 10th Leandre Cristòfol Biennial organized by the Centre d’Art La Panera (Lleida)
11.11.2017The Leandre Cristòfol Biennial has been the project through which the Art
Collection of the City Council of Lleida, which is located at Museu d’Art Jaume Morera, has been
completed and uploaded with Contemporary Art.
This year, the Biennial celebrates its 10th edition, coinciding with the start of a renewal and redefinition process carried out by a commission made up of Javier Hontoria and
Oriol Fontdevila (Art Critics) and Cèlia del Diego (Director of La Panera).
This process of change intends to push the limits of the concept behind the collection, challenge its raison d’être, open it to the citizenship and, at the same time, work with
its concept according to the lines of research posed by the Contemporary Artistic Practice: turn Art Collecting into a contemporary experience in itself.
At this particular time of renewal and opening-up, one of the artists selected to be in the 10th Leandre Cristòfol Biennial is
Ella Littwitz, whose works will be on display until January, 28th (2018) at Centre d’Art La Panera (Lleida).
Luísa Jacinto is taking part in PRAZER DO ESPÍRITO E DO OLHAR. Paisagem e Viagem em Arte Portuguesa da Coleção Arquipélago, a group exhibition organised by ARQUIPÈLAGO, Centro de Artes Contemporãneas.
11.11.2017Last October, was launched the proposal organised by ARQUIPÈLAGO, Centro de Artes Contemporãneas:
an itinerancy exhibition project that is going to tour around the Azores Islands in the final quarter of this year, ending the tour on December 31st, 2017.
This itinerant exhibiton consists of nine Art Works (as many Art Works as islands form the Archipelago) created by young Portuguese artists. All of them are creations where
the focus is on the ideas of landscape and travel.
One of the nine selected artists is Luísa Jacinto who has shown her work Da série Flora V (2011), a pictorial intervention
developed on a reproduction of a botanical print from the series The Temple of Flora (1807) by Robert John Thornton.
In this work the landscape is understood as the scene of an image created according to the principle of the artifice. An image where the presence of the absence is obvious thanks to a
continuous effect created by the neutral background that incorporates the only anthropomorphic representation inside the escene.
Ella Littwitz presenta su trabajo en la colectiva Site en Petach Tikva Museum of Art en Israel hasta el 16 de Deciembre 2017
26.10.2017La información sobre las civilizaciones pasadas se extrae no solo de los documentos escritos, sino también, a veces principalmente, de la investigación de los hábitats y los restos
físicos que quedan atrás. Las cinco exposiciones presentadas bajo el título Sitio * exploran espacios físicos e imaginarios, en un intento de establecer paralelismos con el presente.
Los sitios se perciben como un rastro de procesos demográficos, económicos, sociales y políticos que ocurrieron en las comunidades que los poblaron.
Aunque la mayoría de estos sitios han sido abandonados, vaciados de sus habitantes, abandonados y han perdido su estado original, el pasado todavía bulle en ellos como una fuerza
que carga el presente, impulsando un cambio en él, y proponiendo una dinámica lectura de nociones como casa, cuerpo e identidad, inmigración y género, privado y público.
Como guardianes, los artistas se esfuerzan por dar vida al polvoriento pasado y extraer evidencia silenciosa de la muerte y el olvido
Ella Littwitz participa en la colectiva comisariada por Oriol Fontdevila ARCANA IMPERII. INVESTIGACIONES EN BUROCRACIA en el centro del Carme de Valencia.
26.10.2017Arcana Imperii es un proyecto que acoge el trabajo de artistas que toman la burocracia como medio para la realización de su obra. El Comisario interpreta este hecho como una
modalidad de compromiso político que se expresa en clave postrepresentacional y que deviene acuciante en un momento en que la democracia representativa muestra unos claros
síntomas de agotamiento a la hora de conducir cambio político alguno.

Tercer Paisaje, the project created by Catarina Botelho and curated by Oriol Fontdevila, receives the OFF Prize or the International Photography Festival PHotoESPAÑA 2018
12.07.2018Galería silvestre has been awarded the OFF Prize of PHotoESPAÑA 2018 for the exhibition Tercer paisaje, by
Catarina Botelho. The jury of the Prize, integrated by Luisa Espino, Carlos Rosón and Rosa Yagüez, wanted to
emphasise that Catarina Botelho is a “emergent photographer, who has a project, still in progress, very consistent in which she reflects on those hybrid spaces arised around
the big cities.” They also wanted to stress the power of her images, rich in texture. As well as they wanted to recognise the daily work of “Galería silvestre, a space
emerged in 2014 with a clear vocation of support for emerging artists”.
The exhibition Tercer Paisaje, created by Catarina Botelho and curated by Oriol Fontdevila, deals with the homonymous concept
defended by the botanist Gilles Clément in 2004. According to Clément, the Third Landscape comprises a large amount of vague spaces, devoid of function, of residual spaces,
which, being on the margins of any form of human planning and being in the interstices of the planned city, they generate an unheard-of biological diversity.

definition, reproductions of works of art from all over the world and from all periods, liquefied in a broth of information without beginning or end.
Super AMOLED is a collective exhibition involving three artists: Ana Catarina Fragoso, Carlos Noronha Feio and Martinho Costa. It
is intended to use the painting language to think about images and create them, and doing it nowadays, when high resolution touchscreens are the protagonists of our daily lives.
Paradoxically, the use of the traditional decorative pattern is verified as a common element in these three authors’ works. It appears in Catariana Fragoso’s work as painted
carpets placed horizontally. Using the actual Arraiolos point, and applying it on drawings made on the computer by Noronha Feio; or mixing tile patterns on images dismounted in
Photoshop by Martinho Costa.
If the pixel, repeated in logical sequences, configures an image in the digital language; The pattern repeated in a pictorial plot, models the way in which the works for this
exhibition were conceived and designed.
Super AMOLED can be visited at the Colégio das Artes de Coimbra until
July 27th 2018.

Luisa Jacinto takes part in A PLAY OF BOUNDARIES a group exhibition in the gallery Carlos Carvalho Arte Contemporânea in Lisbon with the artists Clara Sánchez Sala, Elena Alonso, Francisca Carvalho, Francisco Venâncio, José Diaz, Maria Condado, Mariana Gomes, Miguel Marina and Miren Doiz, curated by Jaime González Cela e Manuela Pedrón Nicolau + Maria do Mar Fazenda.
21.09.2019A Play of Boundaries is the title of an exhibition that brings
together recent works by ten Portuguese and Spanish artists. This selection presents
a set of relevant artistic practices, while pretending to identify a generational gesture - all participating artists are under 40 years of age.
Although adopting various mediums, a painting can be understood as the recurring theme in the exhibited works. All pieces play with different boundaries,
frontiers, traditions, disciplines, cultures. This play provides two tenses: the individual, in the context of each practice, and the set, by the
temporary dialogue produced between all the works in the exhibition.
Luisa Jacinto
Next Saturday, April 13th two exhibitions with the participation of the artist Martinho Costa are opened.
09.04.2019Trabalho Capital is the title of one of the exhibitions with the participation of Martinho Costa that will open. Curated by Paulo Mendes, the exhibition

and it will be open for the public until March 9th in the art space Artes Porto.
The exhibition uses as an inspiration the movie of Werner Harzog “Cave of the forgotten dreams” in
which the director used for the first time a two lents camera, to think relations between the work of the two artists and a sensorial asceticism.
A solo show by Gabriela Bettini at the space TASMAN PROJECTS will have its opening on February 9th
27.01.2019On February 9th it’s the opening of the exhibition Zona de Contacto in TASMAN PROJECTS space.
A solo show of one of the artists we happily represent in the gallery, Gabriela Bettini. The exhibition will be curated by Manuela Pedrón and Jaime González Cela.
Zona de contacto establishes a dialogue between previous works of Gabriela, such as: Primavera silenciosa project, La memoria de los intentos
and Paisajes de excepción, and new pieces that continue her investigation line about the capitalist manipulation of nature and the new ways of resistance
in devastating processes that are taking place in Latin America.
The exhibition gathers different series where it is possible to see how the last projects of the artist are related to the different representations of nature
from a feminist perspective. From the colonial landscapes to digital photography, passing by the scientific botanic illustrations to analyse the construction
of the gaze towards the natural environment. Bettini’s work integrates these visual languages in an unique medium; the pictorial. “This association of images
assembles significations, histories and theoretical thinking” say Manuela and Jaime.

La exposición cuenta con diferentes series de fotografías así como con una instalación de video surgida de sus investigaciones actuales. La muestra reflexiona sobre el modo en que vivimos y consumimos nuestro tiempo a día de hoy, las condiciones del espacio urbano así como la articulación de sus lógicas regulatorias y organizativas, culminando en una propuesta contra-narrativa que comprende el surgimiento de las olvidadas e invisibles posibilidades de existencia en la ciudad. La exposición permanecerá abierta al público hasta el 19 de abril de 2020.

Casa d’Avenida presents “CASA”, an exhibition by Martinho Costa and Rui Macedo
18.05.2021The opening of the exhibition will take place next Saturday 22 of May at Casa d’Avenida, Setúbal, Portugal.
17.03.2021The show proposes a dialogue between the artist’s work and diverse pieces of the University of Granada heritage collections. From 12 of March to 21 of April 2021.
05.02.2021The project aims to display an important selection of artworks created by the students who have passed through its classrooms during its more
than a quarter of a century of activity. Thirty artists have been selected, covering the time span of different study promotions—from the graduates of the early years
of the faculty to those who are still finishing, right now, their studies. Each artist will be represented in the exhibition by a work, or a collection, that is particularly
relevant to their trajectory. The vast majority of works chosen are ones that have been purchased by museums, institutions and private collections—many belonging to the CGAC
Collection—thus closing the circle of the essential social and institutional support of artistic production.
Curatorship: Ángel Cerviño.
