Correspondencias para especulación de una exposición interpersonal.

Iban oscuro por entre las sombras by Núria Gómez Gabriel is a curatorial research device that aims to align and put in situation artists-researchers, writers, philosophers and other agents of the cultural context to investigate practices and methodological processes, theoretical, literary and audiovisual references that update the bases of Gothic materalism.

We sincerely thank all the participants of the call and wish the best to Núria Gómez Gabriel for her residence in Hangar, La Casa Encendida and Planta-Alta-hablarenarte.
