Implicit Sound is the second cycle of exhibitions for Espai 13 curated by multidisciplinary artist TRES. The title of the project not only stresses its connection with the previous Espai 13 cycle, Explicit Silence, but also reflects visual artists' growing interest in using sound in their work.
The exhibition invites visitors to delve into Rist’s colourful world through a variety of video installations that play with nature, the human body, music, and the architecture of the exhibition rooms.
The exhibition will show for the first time in Spain a selection of around 80 paintings and drawings by the Czech artist who was considered the first painter to explore the concept of abstract act.
František Kupka: Works from the Centre Georges Pompidou František Kupka (1871-1957), born in Bohemia before moving to Paris in 1896, is considered one of the pioneers of abstract art.
about " Frantisek Kupka: Works from the Centre Georges Pompidou"
The exploration of silence is a constant factor in contemporary art. Twentieth-century artists from Kasimir Malevich and Marcel Duchamp to Yves Klein and Gary Hill - plus a great many others - have exemplified silence, reduction, nothingness, pause, absence, disappearance, invisibility, emptiness, non-action and negation. Silence, however, is still an open space with a lot of artistic potential to be explored.
Only a poet would be able to capture the spirit of Miró with such sensitivity. Dupin and Miró - a dialogue between poetry and painting.
Miró-Dupin: Art and Poetry Joan Miró and Jacques Dupin first met in Barcelona in 1954, and they began a long friendship two years later, coinciding with the monograph that the poet was preparing on Joan Miró.
The artist reflects on the life cycle of women, which can also be taken as a metaphor for the creative cycle.
Javier Arce The Ornament of the Masses: Red, White and Blue How many people visit the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, Tate Modern, Centre Georges Pompidou or Fundació Joan Miró each day? And how many of them leave the museum shops with a souvenir featuring an image of one of the most famous works exhibited or held – works that are part of the established narrative of art history? Often, these items are copies of the very same objects, emblazoned with the museum’s logo or the signature of a renowned artist.
