Orden público: Vagos, Maleantes y Peligrosidad Social

Chiquita Room C/ Villaroel, 25, Barcelona

In the framework of the exhibition Orden público: Vagos, Maleantes y Peligrosidad Social, the artist Daniel Gasol will guide us through his extensive research on the files of the Ley de Vagos y Maleantes (1933-1970) and Peligrosidad Social (1970-1995), analysing how the legislation often turns the underprivileged classes into criminals, who must also redeem themselves by working for the State.

We are back to

El Cangrejo del Raval Carrer de Montserrat, 9, Barcelona

La parte de mí más lejos de mí es la punta de mi lengua

Within a space of imperceptible limits, we follow a character on her expedition to an unknown destination as she embarks on a series of curious encounters that will connect her to her surroundings. With each challenge, the character (the artist and director) interacts with objects and captivating artifacts that, linked together through action, create a set of sequences that trap us in a strange and hypnotic game.
