2016 XIII Literary cities<\/span><\/b><\/p>\nInternational Small Format Contemporary Art Exhibitions. Last edition organized.<\/p>\n
From the art project-laboratory MX Espai 1010, we started together with Nora Ancarola in 1998 some international calls that lasted until 2016. With this proposal we wanted to observe the drifts that were taking place in the world of textile art in connection with its insertion into contemporary art after the Lausanne Biennial closed in 1992.<\/p>\n
Walter Benjamin\u2019s The Arcades Project<\/em> (Das Passagen Werk)<\/em> places us in the Paris of the early 20th century, a new urban territory in which one lived and moved with a daily existence in mind that was over and done with, full of achievements that had become the flotsam of a modernity gone adrift. Benjamin\u2019s Paris is an example of how a city can be travelled by means of its quotations and fragmentary texts\u2026 (Excerpt from the introduction to the catalog).<\/p>\nA project by MX Espai 1010.
