Vinçon Holds Exhibition of ESARQ Final Projects
«Portable Memories» includes material produced during the year in the project workshop.
Each student gathered material
and stored it in a large container whose shape and size correspond to the
project inside. They are not simply boxes, but trunks for
storing thoughts and all the knowledge collected and learned during the fifth
academic year of the Architecture programme that should not be forgotten.
These
trunks contain documents with very different sources and formats: maps,
drawings, collages, sketches, scale models, texts, reference books and more.
When they are opened and activated by each author, the narrative is accompanied
by the sequence in which the different documents appear, as a kind of scenic
aid to represent what is happening.
The
work of the following students is on display: Magda Barceló, Marc Casanova, Albert Guerra, Fran Hernández,
Joan Sans, Glòria Saus and Maria Pilar Sánchez. The students were
instructed by Prof. Ricardo Flores
and Prof. Eva Prats, as well as lecturers Eugenia Troncoso, Oriol Valls and Guillén Augé.
The
Vinçon exhibition space mainly focuses on graphic and industrial design work.
In the 1940s, the space was active for more than a decade on the ground floor
at Passeig de Gràcia 96.
The second period of activity of the exhibition space began in 1973 with an
exhibition by film director Bigas Luna in which the Comediants theatre group
also participated. Since then the
space has been used by artists and designers from different countries.
