El que sesborra no es pot esborrar. L’art de sobreviure en temps de genocidi'

Opening: Thursday 22 October at 19:00 What happens to a visual culture when the places, institutions and archives through which it remembers itself are systematically dismantled? El que s'esborra no es pot esborrar addresses Palestinian visual art as a living ecosystem of memory, structured around five interconnected pillars: Gaza, Jerusalem, the West Bank, the territories of 1948 and exile. These are not separate geographies, but places connected through which images, stories, artistic practices and collective memory circulate. When one of these places breaks, the effects spread to the others. The exhibition, which brings together artists working in these spaces, explores how visual memory persists through displacement, rupture and loss. Painting, drawing, photography, video and installation become traces, testimonies and fragments of an informal archive. The exhibition does not aim to reconstruct what has been erased, but makes visible the practices through which artists continue to remember, transmit and create after -and amid- destruction. Across generations, art carries fragments through time and space, keeping memory in motion when the conditions to preserve it have been violently altered. Artists from Gaza, the West Bank, Jerusalem and exile: Mohammad Abu Sal, Raed Issa, Bayan Abu Nahla, Sohail Salem, Yazan Abu Salamah, Bashar Khalaf, Rawan Joulani, Marwa Bakri, Hamada Maddah, Giovanna Ranaldi. Curatorial Team: Manar Idrissi, Nora Ancarola, Pamela Martínez Rod.
