Six works of art, from gallery collections of the association Galeries d’Art de Catalunya (GAC) , coexist for a few weeks with works from the permanent collection of MORERA. Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Lleida. These are works, from various disciplines and periods, that dialogue with specific pieces or that share the theme of an area and create aesthetic and conceptual connections and unheard of encounters along the Museum’s itinerary.
In the tour of the Unexpected Visits at MORERA, works of social content are mixed with others that dialogue in a more formal way with the Museum’s collection.
The third edition of Visites inesperades is a project conceived by Galeries d’Art de Catalunya, within the framework of the Setmana de l’Art , an event organized by this association. The event takes place simultaneously at the Museu de Montserrat, the Museu d’Art de Girona and the MORERA, with six works per museum that infiltrate the permanent collections.
The 18 selected works are proof of the diversity and richness of the forty associated galleries, with very different proposals ranging from ancient art to modern and contemporary art. For this reason, in the itinerary proposed by Visites inesperades there are works of different styles and artists of various generations.
The small installation by artist Charo Corrales (Imaginart Gallery) vindicates artisanal work, embroidery, typically done by women and invisible throughout history, which dialogues with the painting of ironing machines by Carles Llobet Raurich.
In the area dedicated to art related to the Civil War, a drawing by Juli González dated 1939 (Artur Ramon Art) has been added, which represents the peasant woman Montserrat, a recurring figure in the work of ‘artist in this period, who symbolizes the resistance to fascism.
The elegant self-portrait of the photographer Lídia Vives (Espai Cavallers) accompanies the drawings of Xavier Gosé. The geometry of the painting by Dominica Sánchez (Pigment Gallery) has infiltrated between the research on space by Antoni Abad and Jesús Mauri, while the mobile sculpture of the Swiss Lukas Ulmi (Villa del Arte Galleries) , heir to the avant-garde, it does so among the works of Leandre Cristòfol. On the other hand, the minimalism of Pere Formiguera’s still life (La GaLeRia Batlle Argimon) contrasts with the majestic baroque of Marina Núñez’s still life.
