De Calor (1993-1996)

Curator: Jorge Luis Marzo The magazine De Calor was published in Barcelona between 1993 and 1996, at a moment of intense cultural, social, political and technological transformation. Artists, intellectuals and activists contributed to it, gathering in the pages of its three issues the zeitgeist of new collective models of production and reflection. Tere Badia, Mont Marsà, Jorge Marzo, Carles Poy, Jesús Renau and Toni Serra were part of its editorial board.The exhibition De Calor 1993-1996, curated by Jorge Marzo, brings together a good part of the published materials, contextualising them within a frame of references in order to offer a window through which to visit a set of alternative practices and attitudes to the celebratory model of Olympic and postmodern Barcelona. At the same time, a fourth special issue of the magazine will be published, devoted to ventriloquism as the current driving force of political production; an issue that the subscribers paid for thirty years ago but never received.
