Insides
Insides is an audiovisual session curated by H. Lukas, Ju Salgueiro, Mar Fabbri Tosi, and Tau Luna Acosta, specially adapted for l’Alternativa from an original exhibition at the LGBTI Centre in Barcelona in 2023. The project explores struggles involving bodies and territories, transcending imposed borders and categories of the modern-colonial political framework. The focus is on challenging the oppressive structures of the fictional construct of national sovereignties, particularly those based on race, gender, property and family. The session aims to spark a conversation about belonging, especially in relation to body and territory in the Spanish context, as well as examining strategies of resistance and impact. The screening will be followed by a discussion with the curators and some of the artists from the exhibition.
Tau Luna Acosta, Ju Salgueiro, H. Lukas and Mar Fabbri Tosi are artists, researchers, curators, writers and activists based in Barcelona. They connected in 2020 through the Independent Studies Program (PEI) at MACBA, united by their shared struggles and projects within the antiracist movements and the struggle for sexual and gender liberation. They curated the collective exhibition On Riots, Grief and Parties, coordinated in 2020 by Lucía Egaña Rojas, and have since worked together on various projects, including the talks Making Memories, Continuing to Exist: Imagining Migrant and Dissident Old Ages (LGBTI Centre, Barcelona, 2022) and Permeability, Dissidences and Margins: Limits and Possibilities for Museums, Culture, Genders and Sexualities Beyond Cultural Institutions (for Orgullosa 2022) and the group exhibition Insides (LGBTI Centre, Barcelona, 2022–2023).
