PUTTING MOURNING INTO WORDS
Writing workshop for adults

Tuesday 29.09.26
17.30 p.m. 19 p.m.

A workshop by Marina Sànchez Cid, collaborator with Som provisionals.
Som provisionals is a non-profit cooperative that works for sovereignty over death, promoting self-management, collective empowerment, and community care for mourning, end-of-life, and farewell rituals. Marina Sànchez Cid is the author of the poetry collection La Montaña, and, together with Laura Poch, is also co-author of the illustrated story that bears the same name.

Free activity. Open to the general public. No prior registration is required.

Putting Mourning into Words is a creative writing workshop which draws participants closer to those things which they have left unsaid in the face of mourning. Using various writing exercises, participants will play with language, giving shape to emotions, memories, questions, and silences. Participants will use writing as a way of listening to their feelings, of letting words take them on a journey to places for which they as yet have no names.

In a space of trust, respect, and listening, participants may write and, if they wish, share their writings. Words that embody emotions, words that make room for absence, words that draw us closer to one who is no longer there. The living word, the word that takes shape.

 

SHAPING ABSENCE
Reflections upon the exhibition

Saturday 19.09.26
12 p.m. – 13.30 p.m.

A conversation between Maria Permanyer, curator and artist of the ESCOLLIR L’AMOR exhibition, and Noemí Morral, multidisciplinary creator after a process of grieving.

Free activity. Open to all members of the public. No prior registration required.

The conversation will explore the possibilities of creation as a way to move through absence, and to approach what is sometimes difficult to put into words. Words, images, texts, poems, or songs will serve as a starting point in a discussion about the need to create which often arises in the face of grief; expressing that which seems inexpressible, giving shape to what we feel and, perhaps, finding a way to relate to pain, and also to relate to that which is no longer there.

In conversation, the two guests will share experiences and questions, and  will discuss how art can support us in our grieving processes. What might happen if such an intimate experience were to become visible, and touch other people? What is transformed when we share pain? A reflection upon creation as a space of memory, accompaniment, and transition, and a reflection upon the possibility of finding, in art, a new way of inhabiting absence.

 

 

CREATIVE STILL LIFE, FROM THE OBJECT TO THE SYMBOLIC ARTIFACT

Summer Workshop for Young People

Tuesday 21.07.26 
From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Workshop with Partee 

In this workshop, participants, working in groups, will create several still lifes together. They will use  natural elements or abandoned objects found in public spaces, which will be transformed and reinterpreted, turning them into symbolic artifacts, generating new meanings.

Using processes of observation, selection, and artistic intervention, young people will create collective compositions which will highlight the ways in which everyday objects may be re-signify by the use of creativity.

Workshop  participants will be invited to consider ways of converting seemingly banal elements into works of art, or communication tools with their own symbolic charge.

Registration open from June 18th to July 18th. Limited places. Places are reserved in order of registration.

Workshop Miniespai

Saturday 11.07.26
From 10 a.m. to 12.30 p.m.
ACVIC Centre d’Arts Contemporànies

Graphic design can also become movement. In this workshop, participants will explore the expressive possibilities of colour, shape, composition, and typography through the creation of an abstract and hand-crafted stop motion animation. 

Participants will learn how shapes relate to each other, how colours generate rhythm and emotion, and how arranging elements in space constructs meaning. Using simple materials, participants will experiment with silhouettes, coloured papers, letters, and light effects to create small animated sequences frame by frame. 

The ACVIC Miniespai is an open space full of games, books, and picture books for exploring the creative possibilities of contemporary art. 

 Who is it aimed at?
Families with children aged 5 to 10 years

Fee
Free activity. Advance registration is required using the form on this page.

 

 

A SENSE OF PLACE
Ludic Guided Visit
Saturday 13.06.26
11 a.m. to 12.30 p.m.

 ACVIC Centre d’Arts Contemporànies

Part of the exhibition ART+ESCOLA+CONTACTE curated by  Nàbia Adillon and Montsita Rierola

A SENSE OF PLACE invites you to explore other ways of being together. Using small actions such as walks, gestures, words, silences, images, gazes, and forms of contact, participants will open up spaces of connection between the body and its presence. Performance art will serve as a tool for understanding how to approach, communicate, and share space using a variety of languages, visible and invisible.

Activities will involve observation, listening, movement, and touch broadening to also include a connection with objects and with the exhibition space, how we inhabit this space, how it transforms us, and how sometimes we can become part of the  living installation itself.

Guided visits tho the ART+SCHOOL+CONTACT EXHIBITION

What if we were welcomed within a space, and art became a pretext for us to meet?

Contact is part of our everyday lives, but we do not always pay attention to it. The artworks show us different connections; with the body, with emotions, and also without words. Contact transforms, and leaves its mark.

Throughout the exhibition, visitors will not only observe, but will also participate; playing,  experimenting, and thinking about art.

Groups: The visit may be adapted to suit groups of preschool, primary, secondary, and higher education. These special visits are also offered to groups of informal education, social, cultural and leisure organisations, family associations, etc.

Approximate duration: 60 min (the visit is complemented with an educational activity).

The visit ends in the Minispace and the interactive room, where visitors may experiment with artistic techniques, and leave their marks.

 

Summer art workshop for children aged 6 to 12

30.06 to 02.07.26
10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

INTRODUCTION

Based upon the universes suggested by the ART + SCHOOL + CONTACT exhibition, ACVIC proposes a short journey of artistic experimentation in which contact becomes central; contact with the body, with others, with objects, and with space.

“Contacting is letting the world touch us and, at the same time, learning to touch it in a different way.”

During the art workshop, participants will use postcards of artistic references as inspiration to learn various perspectives on what “contacting” really means.

iD Barrio SP.01 is a project that acts as an observatory of territory and a laboratory for the development of creative processes related to certain ultra-local social activities in some microcontexts of contemporary urban concentrations. The project aims at stimulating collective creativity and cultural exchange as a tool for the development and transformation of territory through creative processes where artistic practices and local social space converge. Analyzing to understand the dynamics of space, visualizing to interpret various mechanisms operating in these places, planning to draw new productive dynamics, collaborating to enhance and multiply creative capacities.
The project proposes the creation of a network based on a three-phase structure: International seminar, Collective workshop and a Travelling exhibition.

iD#5 Seized Cities. Exhibition.
La Capella, Barcelona 15 July - 12 September


Idensitat is an art project developed in various cities with the intention of providing the tools to coordinate creative projects that influence the public sphere in relation to the region. Establishing a production and research network, this platform acts within the field of artistic creation in order to experiment with new forms of involvement and interaction in different social settings.

This exhibition brings together several projects that were part of the fifth edition of Idensitat. They were developed in Calaf, Manresa, Mataró, Sondika, El Priorat and Barcelona. The interventions that took place in each of these cities included creative activities of varying size and scale; each with their own unique targets but also aimed at influencing aspects that deal with collective actions that take place locally. On the whole, they represent artistic experiences that seek specific negotiation elements within local contexts, striving for a mutual exchange of knowledge while remaining open to the creative potential of every participant.

A series of activities were carried out parallel to these actions, including workshops, public interventions (in both rural and urban spaces), energising dynamics, the creation of forums to debate local and guest proposals for action; past experience was discussed and we managed to expose some of the conflict latent in the public sphere. In this exhibition, this collection of projects created in different places and at different times aspires to a way of relating to one another and to turn this space-time into processes, a common ground. More and more, Idensitat is becoming a keystone in the network of project relations, local areas and people that consider creative dynamics a way to intervene and affect social spaces. For this reason, “iD#5: Ciutats Intervingudes” presents artists and collective projects as well as mediating projects and production spaces as a whole. They make up a network that allows for the coexistence of a variety of creative processes with a similar transformative drive, influencing towns, neighbourhoods and cities little by little, while creating pressure on the future of cultural politics.
