Archaeology of Uselessness
to
Lafutura Roser 60,, 08004 Barcelona
In this exhibition as a part of Open Studios (Tallers Oberts) in Poble Sec, the visitor will find the leftovers and discarded objects of useless beauty and with their own inner life found in several artist studios, which reject to be silent.
These useless beautiful objects have been picked up in different times and moments at the CAPA studio (Colectivo Artístico Puerta Abierta) and abandoned by their five members (Tim Maltorpe, Pepe Ternero, Nogueira, Boris Temprado, Dr. Fausto Fox) at some point of the creative process. Don't expect to find objects and pieces placed in some logical order as if they were in an archaeological museum. Quite the opposite, the visitor will be surrounded by the odd and strange chaos of the CAPA artists studio, where the artistic pieces lie on the floor or in drawers, the old paint brushes are used as legs, the frames are piled somewhere, and their muses essences are kept in jars waiting to be free. Definitely, the entrance to the cave where the pieces of the Archaeology of Uselessness rest.
Opening Times: Wednesday to Saturday from 6pm to 9pm
