Opening of the exhibition cycle “Legacies potential”, curated by Oriol Fontdevila
“The future is written; only the past remains unpredictable,” goes a joke that was told under the yoke of Stalinist totalitarianism. As if following it to the letter, art has abandoned the futuristic orientation it embraced with the avant-garde and modernity of the 20th century and, today, connects its pursuit of uncertainty with legacies that, stemming from the past, play a role in shaping the present.
Legacies in Potential is an exhibition cycle organised by Bòlit, Centre d’Art Contemporani de Girona, which, throughout 2026 and 2027, presents a series of newly commissioned artistic projects based on case studies concerning heritage controversies that originate in, or extend into, the counties of Girona.
OPENING OF THE THREE EXHIBITIONS:
– En fi, coses. By Irena Visa. At Bòlit La Rambla.
Diuen que soc.
– Anatomia d’una fabulació. A project by Miguel Ángel Rosales, with the participation of Yinka Esi Graves and David García López de la Osa. At Bòlit Pou Rodó.
– No tot el que es diu troba qui ho vol escoltar; no tot el que troba qui ho vol escoltar es diu en el moment oportú. By Sara Ouhaddou. At Bòlit Sant Nicolau.
Activity linked to the celebration of the city’s bimillennium, “Girona, 2,100 Years”.
