PRACTICAL PHASE (november 2018 – february 2019)

Throughout the first five editions of ON MEDIATION, the practical phase has tested different formats of curatorial practices. For the OM/6 edition, work is being done with Fabra i Coats Centre d’Art Contemporani La Escocesa Centro de Creación to carry out this practice. The project in question must contemplate, beyond the selection of exhibition materials, the mechanisms necessary to activate the project, so as to accentuate its historical, aesthetic and political potential.
