Press release 2024 Season

MACBA inaugurates a new season inviting over one hundred individuals and collectives from Barcelona’s social spectrum to occupy the tower of the Meier building. This is part of the 108 Days exhibition, by Lydia Ourahmane (Algeria, 1992), a newly-commissioned production that takes its title from the number of days that this proposal, which alters the Museum’s modus operandi, will be open to the public. The solo exhibitions dedicated to Jordi Colomer, Mari Chordà and Teresa Solar, the photographic project Unknown City Beneath the Mist. New Images from Barcelona’s Peripheries, and the small-format exhibition dedicated to the disappeared Visual magazine, will play an important part in the season’s programme. Halfway between public programme and exhibition, the projects Song for Many Movements: Scenes of Collective Creation and [contra]panorama will focus on the processes of agency and co-responsibility, asking what are the forms of collectivity, solidarity and infrastructural work that, historically and in the present, have generated the aesthetic, political, cultural and social forms that ended up creating the institution. Thanks to a collaboration with TBA21, the space of the Capella MACBA will host a film installation by the filmmaker, artist and performer Wu Tsang (Worcester, Massachusetts, 1982), on the multiplicity of meanings embodied in the protagonist of Bizet’s opera, Carmen. The exhibition will be accompanied by a series of performances in collaboration with the Grec Festival. The metamorphosis of MACBA Collection: Prelude. Poetic Intention will continue to deploy new dialogues with the incorporation of works by Ignasi Aballí, Mar Arza, Yamandú Canosa, Francesc Torres, Manolo Laguillo, Xavier Ribas and Antoni Tàpies. In the middle of the year, a new rehang will add works by Adrián Balseca, Katia Kameli, Danica Dakić, Younès Rahmoun, Dora García, Soledad Sevilla, Marcel Broodthaers, Daniel G. Andújar, Mireia Sallarès, Cabello/Carceller, Pepe Espaliú, Sinéad Spelman, Lucia Nogueira, Susy Gómez, Lola Lasurt, Helena Vinent, Leonora de Barros, Carmen Calvo and Charo Pradas, among others.
