Latitudes curates Composiciones, a series of five artists' commissions for the first Barcelona Gallery Weekend, 1–4 October 2015

Composiciones Espacios

Five public and private spaces throughout the city host the "Composiciones" programme.

Projects by David Bestué (at the Factory complex Cosme Toda, L'Hospitalet); Dora García (at the Biblioteca del Campo Freudiano); Jordi Mitjà (at the Museu Geològic del Seminari de Barcelona); Rasmus Nilausen in collaboration with Pere Llobera (at the gardens of La Central bookstore, Raval); and Daniel Steegmann Magrané (at the Umbracle, Parc de la Ciutadella).

Composiciones (Compositions) compliments the Barcelona Gallery Weekend programme of exhibitions and events by commissioning artists active in the Barcelona art scene to produce interventions that respond to singular private and public spaces outside the contemporary art circuit – including a private psychoanalytic library, a former ceramics factory and a botanical collection.

Pinpointing some lesser-known aspects of the city's cultural history and municipal life, Composiciones offers moments of interruption, intimacy and immersion throughout the weekend.

Details of the projects and their locations.
