Artist talk between Teresa Estapé and Martí Peran, art critic, curator and author of the text for the exhibition Children and Fools. According to the old adage that gives this exhibition its title, it is in childhood and in madness that we can live free from the demands of productivity. Through this approach, Teresa Estapé seeks to […]
Stabat Mater is a project by Marina Sagona about motherhood and separation. A poem-film delves into loss through the refracted, reframed, repeated gaze. On 15 occasions, the camera pulls back from a portrait of the artist, painted by her former husband, while the image is enlarged each time and the conversation he has with their […]
Sound reading with exouterus talks about a mourning. From medical and personal texts and the sounds produced by the spasmed womb, this piece for two performers narrates through violence, contradictions, revelations and joys what the extirpation of this organ, overflowing with symbolic charge, can entail. This votive ritual arises from the desire to share an […]
On Thursday, November 16, Chiquita Room will be five years old and we do not want to stop celebrating it with all of you, dear people. Because maybe twenty years is nothing, as the tango says, but five years feels like quite a feat for a project like this. During these five years, Chiquita Room […]

The artist Teresa Estapé will give us a guided tour of her installation Valor refugio II, within the exhibition MACBA Collection: Prelude. Poetic intention.
Faced with the need for referents and to share the experience of her hysterectomy, Laia Arqueros embarked on Gynopia and the Spasm.
One of life’s greatest challenges is to remain present in it. Our minds wander in constant yet fruitless fugue between the past and the future. Meanwhile, the famous here-and-now—that place of intimacy with the fluttering totality of our own beings—is our one true refuge for savouring the gift of being alive. Presence Is the Only Goddess […]
On Tuesday, January 23 at 8 p.m. we will present the artist's edition of Plums, Decoding Sparrows, Sweet Bread, as a collaboration between Teresa Estapé and poet Mariano Zaro.

Based on the […]
In Real Time is a performative action that subtly accompanies us to sharpen our senses. Mar Serinyà offers us an action where the voice, the sound of the monochord and the audiovisual image combine to create a real-time experience. Her artistic practice is intimately related to her vital research. To carry it out, Mar uses […]
There is no act of artistic creation without Colleen's total presence - physical, mental and emotional - in front of her working tools. Cécile Schott has always maintained a loving dialogue with the many musical instruments that have allowed her to express herself musically for more than 20 years under her stage name, and more […]

In this space of discovery of new proposals and in support of young […]
What I Don’t Draw is a performance by Xavi Rodríguez Martín in which he invites us to observe how he invokes his creative universe, where the boundaries between the tangible and the intangible are blurred. In real time, Xavi interweaves text and image in an exercise of presence to bring us closer to seeing what he […]
Coleiras is an interactive performative action that emphasizes on the power of the voice as an instrument for collective communication. For the closing of the show Presence Is the Only Goddess I Worship, Mar Serinyà and Xana Sousa, artists with artworks in the group-show, and Alba Casaramona, invite us to "speak up" as a tool […]
Spirito portatile is an exhibition by Laura Zuccaro that stems from the exploration of primordial space and its portable form, on both the material plane and the spiritual one. Using a series of watercolours that sketch out modular structures and the construction of a container for carrying personal items, provisions, lessons learnt and experiences, the […]
From Chiquita Room, once again, on 23 April we are celebrating Sant Jordi with Tandem on Books, an action platform dedicated to promoting knowledge of artists' books. This time, we inaugurated a small one-day exhibition at the gallery, which as you know is also a publisher of artist's books. Curated by Tandem on Books, we […]
Halfway between fetishism and accumulation, book collecting is, like any other collecting, a personal and subjective practice. Each book in a collection tells the story of why it is there, while at the same time telling us about the person who decided to make it so. With the intention of aesthetically and conceptually exploring his […]
The multidisciplinary practice of Julia Aurora Guzmán (Santo Domingo, 1993) oscillates between sculpture, textiles, photography and performance, and emerges as a response to a profound exploration of the transitory cycles in human life, paying special attention to threshold moments. Her works honour births, deaths and tend to the present, becoming sensorial metaphors for the search […]
On the occasion of the closing of the exhibition Spirito portatile, we invite you to the unfolding of Acuario, a work by Laura Zuccaro conceived as a two-coloured hanging canvas, with a poem that can only be read from the inside. The piece thus becomes an intimate, portable space that invites to be inhabited and […]
