Amid the Stones. Thirty Years of La Capella
Amid the Stones is a celebration involving many voices that places the emphasis on all the publications issued at La Capella during its existence. Hundreds of editions of books and other formats that have, paradoxically, generated a certain historiography of the present. A remarkable volume of publications that are the foundations of a possible history of contemporary art that does not claim to be – nor has any interest in being – history. And for this reason, we have decided to display all these books with no interpretative intention or pretension at categorisation.
To do this, we have invited S.S.O.P., who have offered us a support structure – not an item of furniture – on which the publications engage in a dialogue with each other and also with the impression of this architecture. An impression that in one way or another all of you who have passed through La Capella have had.
In addition, the celebration of La Capella’s thirtieth anniversary includes public programmes entitled An Oral History, overseen by Oriol Gual, which revive significant testimony in the life of the centre. This programme of conversations will take place on Thursday 28 November in the afternoon and on Saturday 30 November in the morning.
Opening: Thursday 28 Novemberfrom 7 pm
DJ session with Carles Congost and Ari Cardozo
