"IF IT RAINS LIKE THIS, LET IT POUR!" & Miquel Casablancas 2023 Award

Doors opening of the exhibition, on March 22 at 19 h. 

Following the opening, the jury formed by Caterina Almirall (curator and professor), Carolina Jiménez (curator and cultural researcher) and Marenka Krasomil (winning curator of the SAC International Curatorial Residency Program 2023), will present the Work category award of the Miquel Casablancas Award Visual Arts Competition 2023.

Against all odds, we begin spring with the announcement of rain, lots of rain. This is how we picture the art that is emerging; like fresh, unpredictable, fertile water, vital for maintaining the life cycle of any ecosystem. This exhibition is our own particular rain gauge, bringing together the 10 finalists of the Miquel Casablancas Award 2023 call for proposals together with the 3 projects developed during 2022 through the SAC-FiC residencies. The formats and research processes presented reflect a diverse ecosystem —performance, installation, sculpture, video and drawing — but all of them share a desire to spill into the space of the rooms as if reclaiming the place they occupy in the territory of artistic production. They are, in fact, concerned not only with the issue of working in times of liquid modernity but also with how bodies cope when navigating through or in between these waters. Against all odds, this rain allows alternative ways of thinking to be irrigated in the face of the droughts of recent times.

No prior registration is required.
