XAVIER MONSALVATJE MEETING

  • Monsalvatje, one of the authors of the works of the collection of contemporary art of the Generalitat that is in Potries, visits the municipality of La Safor.

Potries (11/23/2018). Xavier Monsalvatje visits Potries on the occasion of the first itinerary of the Contemporary Art exhibition of the Generalitat Valenciana / First Moments, where one of his art work, Be careful what you wish for …; is exposed, within the first cycle of this exhibition, “Beyond the object: coded narratives” (Més enllà de l’objecte: narratives codificades). The artist explained to the participants the role of the Industrial Revolution in its creative process, its influences and a practical demonstration of how it performs its characteristic ceramic work.

This first cycle will end on November 25 and November 28 begins the next cycle, “Beyond the object: contained memory”, which will be exposed Limbo económico en tres actos by Arte al Cuadrado and Cantos rodados a la memoria byPaloma Navares.

As well as in the next cycle, as in the last, which will be in the museum from December 19 until January 6, the Museum will receive different authors, a magnificent opportunity for the public to interact with the authors and their art works and know firsthand how the creation process has been and the artist himself.

The children of the school are also working together with the Museum and the different exhibitions, where in addition to visiting the exhibition, they carry out different activities related to the works.
