Site-Specific Conversation x Barcelona Gallery Weekend 2023 #1
Site-Specific
Conversation offers a series of conversations with artists and gallerists participating
in Barcelona Gallery Weekend 2023 that will be published weekly during the
summer.
The proposal
once again takes a novel, this time written by Patti Smith, Just Kids, to focus
on "growing up together" and delve into the beginnings,
professionalisation, coexisting with the demands of the art market and
collaborative dynamics, among other aspects.
We are kicking
off the series with gallerist Patricia de Muga from Galeria Joan Prats and Lola
Lasurt, one of the youngest artists represented by the gallery.
Together, we
talk about what renewal means in a legendary gallery, what working in a gallery
you admire represents for an artist, and how artistic processes can overcome
the market’s expectations by taking ample time and space for research.
