The following exhibitions are contemplated, as we have pointed out in the introductory text, within the framework of LAVAC’s collaboration with València Capital del Diseño 2022. This selection responds to the criteria promoted by New European Bauhaus (NEB) from broad creative perspectives. Sustainability, inclusion and diversity, participation and collectivity or innovation, among others, are issues addressed by the programme of exhibitions and activities put forward by the galleries, whose selection we will highlight here according to a monthly programme.

CÀNEM GALLERY (Castellón). While we sink (The world is on Flowers). Iria Novarese. 02.12.2022—04.02.2023
Iria Novarese presents a multimedia installation which, in the form of a cartography, highlights one of the most pressing problems of the planet, its deterioration. Accumulations of plastic and waste of all kinds emerge in a threatened world. Diverse media such as textiles, ceramics and luminous texts warn of dangers that we do not want to see and that we allow to be encapsulated in the ultimate possibility of a utopian safeguard that would seem to save us, with no greater commitment and action than that of the fiction of a future.

Chocolate, strawberry, vanilla is the title of the exhibition curated by Camila Oliveira Fairclough, which presents a varied sample of works and artists with a look that condenses all possible tastes, from sweet to sour through bitter, but which also leaves room for other flavours such as spicy and sour, as well as creamy and rigid textures. And of all these tastes, this exhibition gives a full account of a painting made up of many paintings that from the mouth reach the eye to take us to see in a different way what is happening around us, leaving the strict framework of the painting. https://www.luisadelantadovlc.com/en/current/

ROSA SANTOS GALLERY. Las reglas del juego [The rules of the game]. María Ruido. 16.12.2022 – 17.12.2023
With the screening of The Rules of the Game – a conversation-performance in a sequence shot between the writer and activist Brigitte Vasallo and the artist herself – María Rubio tackles institutional violence as one of the problems that determine our ways of life. From this central piece, the exhibition unfolds a detailed review of some of her most significant films in which issues such as the volatility of labour systems and declassification converge with colonial dependencies or sexual domination.

LA MERCERÍA. Tipos que importan [Guys who matter]. Miguel Maestro. 02.12.2022 – 26.01.2023
A wide range of materials and colours based on which swirl, under diverse typographies, appeal to the collective memory from the sign. With this project, which deals with what we are, from the recreation of an imaginary of communication. An imaginary that is committed to giving value to those platforms of communication in which the creative act would end up disappearing and, therefore, erased from memory by the homogenisation imposed by the conductive norms of global perceptive systems. A rescue of the necessary memory that vindicates a cultural heritage, the typographic one, diverse here written letter by letter.

TUESDAY TO FRIDAY. The Sound of a Falling Tree. Ally Rosenberg, Amy Grogan, Ant Hamlyn, Elsa Rouy, Grace Woodcock, Johnny, Izatt-Lowry, Kara Chin, Liam Fallon, Luke Routledge, Mick Peter, Millie Layton, Ruaidhri Ryan, Tom Wordsfold y Tulani Hlalo. 11.11 – 30.12.2023
Curated by Liam Fallon, this exhibition is about a sound that we only see in art. The exhibition focuses on this variety of tones, which are both dissonant and harmonised, through a wide range of works and artists. Paintings of a very heterogeneous range together with sculptures of equally contrasting volumes add up to animate that imperceptible and perhaps threatening sound of a tree falling, without us knowing when or in which direction. And here is the moment when the spectator has to sharpen his ear to recognise the auditory contours that configure the visual culture of the present. https://tuesdaytofriday.com/
