    1.000 m2 de desig / 1,000 m2 of DesireArchitecture and sexuality

    Adlade de Caters, Rosa Ferr, Beatriz Colomina, Marie-Franoise Quignard, Pol Esteve, Ester Fernndez Cifuentes, Ingo Niermann, Fulvio Ferrari, Rem Koolhaas

    In which spaces does sexuality move in western culture? How do these spaces act when shaping and epitomising roles and practices? From the sexual utopias of Ledoux, Fourier and Sade to the aspirations of hippy communes or the radical architecture of the 1960s and 1970s, what programmes have sought to have an influence in cities by controlling space when defining or liberating sexual behaviour? From the eighteenth century and the French aristocracyspetites maisons, with their specialised rooms, decoration and furniture, to bachelor pads presented in Playboy, what is the role played by architecture in the strategies of seduction?

    2016Despues del fin del mundo / After the end of the world

    Jos Luis de Vicente, McKenzie Wark, Timothy Morton, Kim Stanley Robinson, Patricia Vieira

    The Paris Agreement has become the international communitys definitive attempt and perhaps its final opportunity to halt the most catastrophic consequences of climate change. At some point in the second half of the 21st century, there will have to be zero CO2 emissions into the atmosphere and the transition to an energy model based on decarbonisation will have to be complete. Achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement is a collective challenge for which there are few historical precedents. If we manage it, the world between 2050 and 2100 will be dramatically different to the world we were born into and grew up in. To get there, we will have to accept that the problem is not just one of engineering.

    Photobook Phenomenon

    Moritz Neumller, Lesley A. Martin, Markus Schaden, Frederic Lezmi, Martin Parr, Horacio Fernndez, Ryuichi Kaneko, Gerry Badger, Erik Kessels, Irene de Mendoza

    Photobooks have become increasingly popular in recent years and occupy a central place in contemporary photogra-phy. Nowadays, more photobooks are produced, bought and sold, swapped and collected than ever before. Independ-ent publishing and the self-publishing of books and fanzines have become a phenomenon that has had a considerable impact on both the publishing industry and the art world, and there is an evident return to the printed object, even though we are at the height of the digital era. Many artists have found this format to be not only a good tool for showing their work, but also the perfect place for experimen-tation and creativity. In addition, there is a growing interest in reinterpreting the history of photography through the role of the photobook and printed photographs.

    Les variacions Sebald / Sebald Variations

    Jorge Carrion, Pablo Helguera, J.J. Long, James Elkins, Juli de Jdar, Josep Maria Llur

    Sebald Variations has been conceived as a visual and textual essay that brings together the voice of the writer and other creators working in different fields and examines the way a number of Sebalds conceptual strategies the use of images with texts, his own particular historical reflections, the unexpected juxtaposition of scenes and narrativity as a whole have influenced the visual arts and literature since his death just over 10 years ago.

    La mquina de pensar / The thinking machineRamon Llull and the ars combinatoria

    Amador Vega Esquerra,Siegfried Zielinski,Miquel Bassols,Fernando Domnguez Reboiras, Charles Lohr,Barbara Maria Stafford

    In the intellectual context of the late 13th century, created by Arab, Jewish and Christian philosophers and scientists, the figure of Ramon Llull occupied a prime position. Llull was a prolific writer and untiring traveller who invented a new form of universal knowledge, the ars combinatoria, which can be seen as a precedent of new information technologies Combining historical documentation and the more recent approaches of artists who have been inspired by his work, the catalogue explores some surprising and little known aspects of his thinking, and analyses Llulls body of work and, most of all, his legacy from a contemporary viewpoint.

    + Humanos / Human +The future of our species

    Cathrine Kramer, Ricard Sol, Michael John Gorman, Mavi Snchez-Vives, Rachel Armstrong

    What will the human race be like in the future? As a species, how will the evolutionary process affect us? Our species is becoming progressively different on the basis of an evolution that involves science and technology. In every sense. In the measure that human action, science and technology can modify the human body itself: its capabilities, its perceptions and its durability. But also in the measure that such human action has an impact on the environment and so orients, constructively or destructively, the evolutionary processes of any species affected by it, which means absolutely all of them. And above all of them, our own. Cyborgs, prosthetics, hybrids, robots, augmented capacities, artificial intelligence, the redesigning of our surroundings, lengthening lifespan, etc.

    Arissa The Shadow and the Photographer 1922-1936

    Rafael Levenfeld, Valentn Vallhonrat

    In the work of photographer Antoni Arissa Asmarats (Barcelona, 1900-1980), one of the most important figures of the photographic avant-garde, we encounter a clear and explicit artistic ambition. For Arissa, photography is not just a way of reflecting and documenting reality, but offers the possibility of venturing deeper into its creative dimension. His artistic ambitions and his constant searching and experimentation situate his work in the pictorialism of the first era, to evolve later towards the New Vision, indisputably his most modern and important phase.

    The Mancomunitat of Catalonia, or Commonwealth of Catalan-Speaking Regions, was founded on 6th April 1914 with Enric Prat de la Riba as its president. It was a political project that brought together the four Catalan provincial councils. Although it didnt have any other resources than those provided by the provincial councils, the Mancomunitat achieved a great deal and was able to transform the country. For a decade it worked energetically to create solid tools of connectivity and growth in Catalonia. .

    Metamorfosis / MetamorphosisFantasy Visions in Starewitch, vankmajer and the Quay Brothers

    Carolina Lpez, Brian Dillon, Pascal Vimenet, Franois Martin, Jordi Costa, Andrs Hispano

    Presentation and journey through the work and references of filmmakers Ladislas Starewitch, Jan Svankmajer and the Brothers Quay, to trace the lines of intersection and convergence between their imaginaries. Although these are three very personal universes of great richness and multiple nuances, they often share an atmosphere or reference points or sinister, surreal, humorous poetics in which the fairy tale coexists with the cabinet of curiosities, Renaissance science, magical illusions and a certain intellectual, aesthetic and literary legacy originating from the Eastern Europe of the early 20th century.

    El Parallel, 1894-1939 Barcelona y el espectculo de la modernidad

    Xavier Albert, Eduard Molner, Antoni Ramon, Paco Villar

    At the end of the 19th century, and favoured by the new urban planning regulations of the time, Barcelonas Parallel became the citys leisure avenue par excellence. This new reality, perfectly comparable to those existing in other large urban centres in Europe at that time quickly became, however, a genuine cultural expression of the social and political conflict that characterised the Barcelona of the early 20th century.

    A review of the character and the work of the writer Roberto Bolao, taking as a starting point three of the places where he lived for a large part of his life: Barcelona, Girona and Blanes.Bolaos work, from the exercises of his youth written to free my hand to the cathedral-like ambition of 2666, all seems to form part of a universe in expansion, with its own laws, games, mirages and connectivities. The catalogue helps, in this sense, to unravel the Bolao enigma.

    Souvenir Martin Parr, Photography and Collecting

    Horacio Fernndez, Juan Pablo Wert Ortega

    Martin Parrs photographic work provides an exceptional insight into the rich and surprising relationships between photography and collecting within the framework of the tourist experience: the privileged backdrop for modern life. The catalogue seeks to establish a dialogue between these two realities photography and collecting in order to reveal their affinities and contradictions and thus enable the viewer to decipher the motives, media and objectives of both these types of artistic intervention.

The screen in all places and at all times; the screen in all shapes and sizes; the screen on one, the screen with one; the handy, all-seeing screen: the century that is beginning is the century of the omnipresent and multiform, planetary and multimedia screen. This reality has generated a new language, which most individuals now master, a new perception of things, a new consumption: in short, a new culture.

Using cinema, videos, documentaries, animation and installations, the catalogue presents some alternatives in the debate on the relations between art and power in societies submerged in conflicts of historical memory.

    Atopia Art and City in the 21st Century

    Ivn de la Nuez, Josep Ramoneda

    A look at the contemporary art of the decade 2000 to 2010 which was characterised by the escalation in global terror (since the 9/11 attacks on the United States in 2001) and the politics of fear that followed. The artists show us their experiences of the city of fear, of the tensions between individuals and the masses, of the urban landscape, and clearly show an unease and a shared universal pathos which, in spite of everything, allows us to recover the idea of a common aesthetic experience.

    Bamako 7th African Photography Meeting. In the City and Beyond

    Akinbode Akinbiyi, Marie-Jos Lacour, Simon Njami, Pep Subirs

    The seventh edition of the Bamako Rencontres Africaines de la Photographie focused on the subject of urban life. The photographers taking part in the Rencontres highlighted the theme by looking at cities as urban enclaves that are, fundamentally, networks of material and immaterial relationships between individuals and groups rather than material and functional structures and devices.

    J. G. Ballard An Autopsy of the New Millennium

    Jordi Costa, Rodrigo Fresn, Vicente Luis Mora, Simon Sellars, V. Vale

    Ballards is a unique, open-ended body of work that is intuitive, urban and totally contemporary. It has a popular and visionary dimension that makes it particularly current at a historic moment in time marked by globalisation at every level, the unstoppable process of the technification of everyday living and the crisis in the economic and environmental model. His work isnt that of a pessimist but rather that of an aware and lucid hyper-realist.

Formentor, Merc Garca Arn, Carlos Jimnez Villarejo, Santos Juli, Imma Julin, Vicente Snchez Biosca, Nicols Sartorius, Suso de Toro, Assumpci Villatoro, Ricard Vinyes, Pere Yss

    A look at the complex and event-filled process that was the Spanish transition, from the end of the dictatorship of General Franco to the start of the restoration of democracy. From a non-historical viewpoint, it analyses the transition as a process that affected and was moved forward by the people who lived through it, not just by the political elite. The experiences of a generation, both personal and collective, are illustrated by the sections of the book: strike, the police station, forms of coexistence, the psychiatric hospital, the music scene, communication, sport, school and memory.

    Apartheid The South African Mirror

    Ash Amin, Les Back, Patrick Bond, George M. Fredrickson, Edgar Pieterse, Ciraj Rassool, Pep Subirs, Maurits Van Bever Donker

    A conceptual and visual approach to old and new forms of racism, discrimination, segregation and control often imposed from the North-Western tradition based on a wide selection of documents and original artworks from South Africa. Beginning with a historical review of racism and the apartheid in force in South Africa from 1948 to 1994, the catalogue analyses the current situation when the old mechanisms of inequality and exclusion are tending to be reproduced while new ones are being created.

    Historically, Easterners have paid much less attention to Europeans than we have to them; while Orientalism is a cultural tradition in the West, the West rarely features in the creativity of Eastern cultures, to such an extent that Islam has been divided in the way it views the West. In the East, the different attitudes about and gazes onto the West have coexisted throughout history: conflict, solidarity, exchange, fascination do not alternate in time but coincide.

    Factoria dhumor Bruguera / Factora de humor BrugueraCarles Santamaria, Jaume Vidal

    Characters such as Carpanta, The Gilda sisters, Tribulete the reporter, Zipi & Zape, Carioco and Mortadelo & Filemn defined a kind of humour that emerged from the comic strips to be shared by generations of readers. Bruguera was one of the countrys first cultural industries. It was a pioneer in the field of culture for the masses, who were the target of its products in the form of comic books and popular novel. It consequently played a prime role in the construction of the Spanish imaginary of the post-war years, specifically in the field of humour, by means of which it reached a whole range of social sectors, without distinction of class or age.

    Images: Arnold Bcklin, Luis Buuel, Albrecht Drer, Francisco de Goya, Gustave Moreau, Jos de Ribera, Salvator Rosa, Cindy Sherman, Jonathan Swift, etc.

    When we speak of savages, the first idea to spring to mind is that of primitive peoples far from our European shores and supposedly beyond the bounds of civilisation. The origin of the concept comes to us from Greek culture, for which savage was a synonym for an imaginary creature who was half human, half animal, and related to the gods. The concept of the wild man and the associated iconography has changed throughout history, but not the idea that savages are beings on the fringes of civilisation.

    La ciutat que mai no exist / The City that Never WasFantastic Architectures in Western Art

    Pedro Azara, Karsten Harries and Jean-Jacques Wunenburger

    The discovery in the late fifteenth century of Roman frescoes representing imaginary architectures saw the start of a new conception of art and a new genre: the architectural capriccio. The influence of this new genre spans the work of painters of the main European schools (Monsu Desiderio, Vredeman de Vries, Marieschi, Bellotto, Hubert Robert) to those by other artists of the historical avant-garde movements who were also influenced by this pictorial tradition: De Chirico, Lger, Klee, Delvaux. The effect of this genre on contemporary artists is represented by the work of Ann Veronica Janssens, Catherine Yass and Miquel Navarro, among others.

    The new documentary practices are no longer the exclusive territory of the professional informant. They are represented by artists, film-makers, novelists, visual anthropologists, amateur ethnographers and anonymous citizens who place their images in circulation. Unlike what happens in the dominant media, these documentaries superpose the moments of the information and of debate. They are ways of intervening in reality, a new activism of representation. Images, among others, of Allan Sekula, Stanley Greene, Bruno Serralongue, Chantal Akerman, Hannah Collins, Johan van der Keuken, Alan Berliner, Pter Forgacs, etc.

    Pedro Calleja, Jordi Costa, Irwin Chusid, Rodrigo Fresn, Mondo Brutto, Sergi Pmies, lex Z

    Painting, music, television... The products of trash culture are those that official culture brands as aberrant (a painting by a serial killer, the strange beauty of a fairground freak, etc.), but which the consumer, by means of irony, can elevate to the category of fascinating. A catalogue to discover a process of aesthetic enjoyment that is becoming an increasingly everyday experience.

    Fantasies de lharem i noves Xahrazads / Harem Fantasies and New ScheherazadesPatricia Almarcegui, Erika Bornay, Rosse Issa, Sophie Makariou, Fatema Mernissi, Amina Okada

    Or how, by means of fascinating reading such as The Thousand and One Nights, the Western world has produced an unreal image of the East, a mirage of desire and ignorance that found its clear expression in the treatment of the theme of the harem. However, by comparing works by painters such as Ingres, Fortuny, Delacroix, Matisse, Picasso, and through an extraordinary selection of Eastern miniatures, the catalogue also shows how the East has constructed dreams and fantasies about women which have eclipsed a complex and not always pleasant reality. This twofold East-West fantasy has, like a thick veil, distorted the image of women and their personal reality.

    To Borges, Buenos Aires is a literary experience. Buenos Aires is, in turn, his city and all cities, the space of his everyday life and memories but also the imaginary world: the universe built by man which he will never know fully. The city is of every man and of all men.

    The photographer Gisle Freund is known for having put a face to the great names of the twentieth century. This is a definition she was very proud of. But, apart from taking photographs of the most outstanding writers and intellectuals in 1930s Europe, she nonetheless, had her own theory of photography and was a pioneer in the use of colour film.

    La ciutat dels cineastes / La ciudad de los cineastas

    Jos ngel Alcalde, Jordi Ball, Javier Candeira, Domnec Font, Manuel Gausa, Andrs Hispano, Imma Merino, Pilar Pedraza, Xavier Prez, Ivan Pintor, Enric Ruiz-Geli, Jordi Snchez-Navarro, Jaume Valor

    Some of the foremost film directors have catalysed urban geographies and the settings of our lives with their cameras. In their eyes, the city acquires an emotional dimension which elevates it to artificial spaces, interior spaces, infernal spaces or uninhabitable places; it also retrieves the spaces of memory, constructs spaces of reconciliation and materialises, if need be, contemporary forms of the non-place. Their gaze gives rise to the ghetto, violence, private lives lived in public places... La ciutat dels cineastes offers a body of reflection on these mental and cinematographic transformations of the city and its inhabitants.

    Albania was a victim of a cruel and bloody dictatorship which disfigured the face of the country and its inhabitants. A portrait of a country, from a physical, psychological, artistic, historical and eye-witness point of view, and of its capital, Tirana, which turns into a metaphor that allows us to extrapolate the characteristics of the Albanian case which is practically unknown in the West to others in contemporary history.

    Six African cities, Dakar, Abidjan, Lagos, Cape Town, Johannesburg and Harare, are places of artistic creation and conflict, where the contradictions between tradition and modernity are shaped and the future possibilities for the future of Africa today are defined. The book summarises, in the style of a travelogue, the artistic and urban realities of this diverse continent.

These inventions might have been the countrys chance to develop itself and its industry both at home and abroad, if the government had not elected to present Spain to the world in the form of the Eucharistic Congress.

    Far from reflecting the reality of 18th-century Venice, Antonio Canal, Canaletto, reinvented it subjectively in his paintings. He turned it into a clear, light-filled world, crystallised in the golden aura of the Enlightenment. Canalettos Venice is none other than the mirage of a city of supposed photographic qualities which seeks to exercise illusion over the viewer.

    Since the birth of photography, architecture has been the artists staunchest ally. It is no accident that more and more artists are recreating the exteriors and interiors of iconic buildings through photography and a growing number of visual artists are working with architects. Indeed, there is probably no better metaphor for modernity and its changes in fortune than famous architectural landmarks.

We have to return to the compact, diverse city, the traditional Mediterranean city model.

Viewing the first maquettes of houses designed by man takes us back to that classical reflection on the form of the house, but above all, it awakens the inexhaustible passion for origins.

    La ciutat de la diferncia

    Manuel Delgado

    Cultural diversity is a condition that cities have employed to make progress, in that it has forced groups of people with very differing qualities to co-operate. The recognition of plurality as a condition of society and thinking represents a new argument for the cause of peaceful co-existence and mutual respect: differences are merely the result of the need for differentiation.
