Uprisings

Museu Nacional d’Art de Catalunya. From 24-02-2017 to 21-05-2017.

Uprisings will gather nearly 300 pieces – paintings, drawings and prints, photos, movies and manuscripts – from mid-nineteenth century to the present, of more than a hundred different authors. These have a common topic about collective emotions and political events entailing movements such as riots, civil disobedience, political turmoil, social disorders and revolutions of all kinds. The exhibit is based on the historical and theoretical work of the philosopher, art historian and the exhibition’s curator Georges Didi-Huberman.
