Orden público: Vagos, Maleantes y Peligrosidad Social

Chiquita Room C/ Villaroel, 25, Barcelona

“Orden público: Vagos, Maleantes y Peligrosidad Social” es un proyecto de Daniel Gasol que realiza contrabando de expedientes de la Ley de Vagos y Maleantes (1933-1970) y Peligrosidad Social (1970-1995) para pensar cómo la legislación convierte a las clases desfavorecidas en delincuentes que deben redimirse a través del trabajo para el Estado.

In the framework of the exhibition Orden público: Vagos, Maleantes y Peligrosidad Social, Daniel Gasol invites us to participate in a workshop in the context of the La Model prison in Barcelona, one of the places where detainees under the Ley Vagos y Maleantes (1933-1970) and the Ley de Peligrosidad Social (1970-1995) were held and imprisoned in order to serve their corresponding sentences.

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.

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

Chiquita Room C/ Villaroel, 25, Barcelona

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.  

Sobremesa

Chiquita Room C/ Villaroel, 25, Barcelona

Sobremesa is a project by Liliana Díaz in collaboration with Xavier Barriga that explores the way we feed ourselves and the content we choose to do so. The exhibition, oriented towards the exploration of the relationship between public and artwork through sculpture and bread, is an attempt to evidence the way in which we share and to question the permanence of sculpture and its function.
