Just like every November, LOOP returns to Barcelona<\/strong> to explore and champion video as a contemporary art form and means of artistic expression. The event brings together artists, galleries, museums, curators and collectors around the moving image through a programme that combines a festival, art fair, talks and professional networking events.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The programme features exhibitions and audiovisual installations in museums, galleries and cultural venues, screenings of experimental cinema and international video art, as well as performances and meetings with artists and industry professionals.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Under the title \u00abXiu Xiu\u00bb (whispers in Catalan), LOOP is extending its programme this year until 21 November and is also reaching Poblenou, where two of its venues are located: the Museu de la M\u00fasica and the Can Framis Museum.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Museu de la M\u00fasica is hosting World<\/em>, a solo exhibition by French artist \u00c9tienne Chambaud, structured around a series of interventions conceived specifically for the space. The work that gives the exhibition its title is built around the continuous editing of hundreds of hours of found footage and zombie TV series. Through the appropriation and transformation of audiovisual material, it explores the possibilities of the moving image.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The exhibition opens on 13 November at 6 pm and will remain on view until 14 February. In addition, to celebrate Saint Cecilia’s Day, the museum will hold an open day on 22 November.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Meanwhile, Can Framis is presenting a two-channel video installation by artist Salem de Amar, a graduate of BAU. The work explores the relationship between power structures and language, and how both shape our perception of reality through the canon. It invites viewers to question established narratives and the mechanisms that determine how we interpret the world.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A guided tour of the exhibition with the artist will take place on Sunday 15 November at 12 pm. Advance registration is required. The exhibition will remain open until 17 January.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you are interested in audiovisual art that goes beyond conventional cinematic formats, LOOP is a great opportunity to discover new forms of expression and explore the dialogue between contemporary art and the moving image, also through Poblenou\u2019s cultural venues.<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
