Performance in Dialogue with the Outdoor Sculptures

16 and 17 May, 11.30 am and 12.30 pm
Register

A conversation between visual and performing arts. This series of performances brings together the outdoor sculptures from ‘Directionless’ with a range of performative methods—voice, theatre, poetry, puppetry, sound and dance.

Responding to the open-air sculptures, artists Guillem Albà, Pepino Pasqual, Aina Quiñones, and Joan Taltavull propose a dialogue between art that remains fixed in space and time and art that is created through movement and transient by nature.

Although this event is free to attend, please book your place and shuttle boat tickets in advance here.

About ‘Directionless’
‘Directionless’ is a sweeping group exhibition organised by artist Rashid Johnson. The project begins with the premise that we are living in a moment of profound disorientation. This is a time when inherited narratives, stable identities, and the systems that once structured social and aesthetic life feel increasingly insufficient. Rather than offering resolution, the exhibition asks how artists productively inhabit this uncertainty—how they develop new vocabularies and provisional orientations when established coordinates fail.

The exhibition ‘Directionless’ will open on Sunday 21 June.
