Juana and the Observant Beings. Participatory Performance

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on
Big words

On the occasion of the centenary of the birth of Alicante-born artist Juana Francés, the Palabras Mayores group presents the performance Juana and the Observant Beings, a collective creation conceived, produced and realized by the participants in this intergenerational museum project.

Palabras Mayores is a meeting space for people over 60 years old who, every Wednesday, come to the museum to learn, dialogue, display and experiment with contemporary art and culture. A place of creative freedom where vital experience becomes artistic material.

This performance proposes a scenic reinterpretation of Juana Francés' creative process, placing the audience within a mind in constant ferment. As if we were traversing her thoughts, obsessions and questions, the action is articulated in dialogue with the series The Man and the City, one of the artist's most emblematic works, in which she addresses society from dystopia, dehumanization, the alienation of the individual and the tension between matter, body and urban environment.

The so-called Observant Beings—hybrid figures, almost homunculi—inhabit the space as silent, critical and vulnerable witnesses. They observe, surround and question both the action and the audience, inviting a shared reflection on the human condition, the city, the passage of time and the contemporary gaze.

The performance is participatory, open to the direct experience of the audience, who cease to be mere spectators to become part of the mental and symbolic atmosphere that runs through the piece.

White Night 2019

Submitted by brandcode_deweloper on

Alicante proposes year after year the White Night, with an attractive cultural offer. The initiative is jointly programmed by the city's museums and art centers. The proposal that emerges from several meetings between technicians from different museums is to celebrate the first edition of the White Night in Alicante, on July 19, 2015, with an attractive offer of activities. The purpose is to enjoy contemporary artistic creation through different activities and free cultural events, thus promoting citizen participation. In Spain, this initiative is developed in cities such as Madrid, Burgos, Málaga, Albacete and Barcelona, to which others have been added such as La Laguna, Badajoz, Teguise, Alcalá de Henares, Zaragoza, Nerja, Seville, Almería, Cáceres, Oviedo or Granada.

With this purpose, Alicante proposes year after year the White Night, with an attractive cultural offer. The initiative is jointly programmed by the city's museums and art centers: MARQ Archaeological Museum, MACA Museum of Contemporary Art of Alicante, MUBAG Gravina Fine Arts Museum, MUA Museum of the University of Alicante, Las Cigarreras, Volvo Ocean Race Museum, Museum of Waters of Alicante, Exhibition Hall of the Fish Market, Juan Gil Albert Institute of Culture, and MUSA, Alicante City Museum. The project aims to bring together all types of public and private cultural initiatives, promote the participation of people from Alicante, individually or collectively, and suggests rediscovering the city with the opening of different spaces that are not usually accessible to the public at night.
