SCREENINGS | 00 am
Marc Salicrú | Brief beginning of an approach to the journey by the journey | Video animation, 2022 | 17’20’’
This piece was at the inaugural exhibition of the M|A|C, as an installation in a three-phase animation format and sculptural study of the character that Marc Salicrú later turned into the protagonist of the show he offered last summer as part of La Mercè on the beach in Barcelona.
This video, then, can be considered as the dreamlike seed of what later became the real madness that will be seen below.
Marc Salicrú | Interferència 01 (WIP) | Video, 2025 | 21’
Interferència 01 is the first action of the project “Teatres de Campanya”, by Marc Salicrú, the creation of an experimental and chaotic “city concert” on the beach of Barcelona: a sound naumachia of sirens and pyrotechnics, municipal brigades, public address announcements, shouted proclamations, floral tributes, giant dances and choral hymns… They are songs and melodies of what passes under our feet and builds us as a gear that collides with past, present and future and that is contemporary and popular, to give citizens a place to look up again and reimagine their daily landscape.
“Teatres de Campanya” is an absurd, ironic, folkloric and festive hurricane that is fleetingly introduced into public space in the form of visual, sound and sensorial scenic interference. The show was recorded and we will see a first summarized version of what happened in those days.
Creation and Direction: Marc Salicrú. Production: Àlex Sardà. Production: Fractal.

MUSIC | next
Lolo & Sosako
Sound intervention by Lolo (Buenos Aires, 1977) and Sosaku (Tokyo, 1976). They met in Barcelona in 2004 and have been working as an artistic duo ever since. At first their collaborations were diverse (painting, sculpture, street art and video art), but shortly after they began to focus on the world of music and sound. They invented and sculpted their first instruments, but soon they built a second generation of instruments, in which the viewer gains importance and becomes part of the work itself, and is often invited to interact and form a kind of symbiosis with the instruments. Lolo & Sosaku were part of the show by Marc Salicrú.

Many things happen at patio time. It is not only a moment dedicated to rest or breakfast: it is a space in which we reveal our social skills (communication, cooperation, conflict resolution, exchange and negotiation) and also a space accessible to everyone, so that the same ones do not always impose themselves, those who have more space or have more power.
The patio of the M|A|C is a friendly, comfortable and warm place, for diverse audiences (including family audiences), to spend July evenings in company, in a patio converted into the art center’s cinema and a summer meeting space, with a bar and live music.
