Exhibition “Carles Gabarró. The Fragility of Painting in the Age of ‘Fast Food’”
Immerse yourself in the exhibition “Carles Gabarró. The Fragility of Painting in the Age of ‘Fast Food’”, where brushstrokes tell stories of change and continuity. From the expressionist beginnings of the 1980s to contemporary visions, Gabarró has woven an artistic career that challenges time and convention.
About this event
The exhibition is structured as a journey through four creative cycles: “Magma” (1995–1996), where energy and chaos take form; “Libraries” (2006–2024), which captures stillness and knowledge at rest; “Factories” (2009–2015), reflections on industrialisation and its impact on the social landscape; and “Beds” (2013–2024), intimate spaces for reflection and dreams. These themes are bridges between Gabarró’s early works and his most recent experiments, offering a unique perspective on his stylistic and thematic evolution.
This journey not only explores Gabarró’s career but also invites contemplation of how his art is a mirror of cultural and personal transitions, positioning painting as a vibrant and eternally relevant medium in the dialogue on the human condition and the fragility of our era.
