The way things do
to
Fundació Joan Miró Parc de Montjuïc s/n, 08038 Barcelona

Artists Daniel Jacoby, Yu Araki, Serafín Álvarez and Cécile B. Evans celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Swiss film The Way Things Do (1987) in this new exhibition at Fundació Joan Miró. Directed by Swiss artists Peter Fischli and David Weiss, the film shows the chain reaction of a long sequence of objects and substances that activate and connect with each other, as if they were predetermined by a continuous cause-and-effect relationship. Using this notion as the basis for the exhibition, the artists aim to offer a new perspective from which to explore the object as an independent, complex, inexhaustible reality. Additionally, the work exposes the background behind a traditional Japanese sport that is now only practised on a single track in the world. The exhibition ends with a screening of the original film.
