Artigas. L’home del foc
april 2012
Josep Llorens Artigas (Barcelona, 1892 – Gallifa, 1980) is one of the most important names in twentieth-century European pottery. The “Artigas. L’home del foc” (“Artigas. The Man of Fire”) exhibition gives us the opportunity to understand and realise the importance of the main contributions of Artigas. The exhibition shows over one hundred and fifty items covering his long career in chronological order, including his fruitful collaboration with artists such as Raoul Dufy and Joan Miró.

FORJA (2011, 7'20'')
Film of Frederic Amat with music by Heiner Goebbels
The film FORJA is a hypnotic ‘traveling’. The calligraphy in iron forged of the balconies of La Pedrera, like the foam fossil of its waves.

Picasso, the heart of the matter
october 2011
In my talk on the works in the exhibition Devorar París. Picasso 1900-07 I want to discuss the gestation and crystallization of a great and daring creative adventure in the early years of the twentieth century, and the impact this has had on our vision of reality and its appearances.
FREDERIC AMAT ho va deixar
june 2011
Frederic Amat és un dels artistes catalans més reconeguts internacionalment i un dels més difícils de classificar per la seva amplitud d’interessos i camps de treball. Pintura, gravats, espais escènics, murals, pel·lícules i un llarg etcètera configuren el seu univers plàstic. Va estudiar Arquitectura dos anys durant els anys setanta a l’etsab. Ens trobem a la seva casa-estudi de Barcelona per parlar sobre la seva obra i el seu interés per l’arquitectura.

TATE MODERN: Joan Miró Study Day
june 2011

Art and Politics: Joan Miró Study Day
Saturday 25 June 2011, 10.30–17.00
This Study Day explores issues raised by the major exhibition of Joan Miró at Tate Modern. Starting from the surrealist context of Miró's art it moves to the broader theme of the complex relationship between art and politics. Speakers address a range of issues, from the specific contexts in which Miró worked, to the ‘radicalism’ of surrealism. Curators, academics and artists contribute to the debates. Speakers include artists Frederic Amat and Eva Bosch, art historians and curators Jon Bird, William Jeffett, Robert Lubar and Gill Perry, philosopher Nigel Warburton, and curators of the Miró exhibition Matthew Gale and Marko Daniel.

Today in Patmos, although not of the Greek islands ravaged by tourism, it is difficult to stage, even with imagination, hard and lonely landscape in which St. John wrote, according to Christian tradition, the Apocalypse. Everything is too kind and too ... But do not doubt that 2,000 years ago could be a Patmos, insulated with respect to the busiest shipping lanes, the island that was suitable for the elderly plans Evangelist, and there's sweet in his youth John was "the beloved disciple "of Jesus to become ...
