The exhibition Pleas of Resistance traverses more than twenty-five years of practice by the artist Carlos Motta, who consistently engages with the body and sexual dissidence as a terrain of experimentation and political contestation.
His early explorations of photographic self-portraiture are shown alongside his most recent performances and video installations. The exhibition explores the magnitude of Motta’s artistic research and its implacable rigor in relation to the archive, interrogating its violence, its silencing and its desires. Motta’s work challenges the imposition of Eurocentric epistemologies – from the time of the conquest and colonial period in the Americas to the present day – and considers the legacy of religion as a perpetrator and disturbing vehicle of coloniality.

I went there twice, but I didn&#39;t expect that the park tickets would have to limit the number of people. You need to buy tickets in advance, so you can enter in advance and don&#39;t have to wait until the hour. The park designed by Gaudi has 3 good attractions and you can also visit the Gaudi Museum.

Casa Batlló

It is very convenient to buy and use at any time. The ticket is issued quickly and you can enter directly with the QR code. Just a reminder that the time on the ticket is the earliest entry time. If you arrive early, you will not be allowed to enter. The design is so beautiful, super recommended, I feel that &quot;Submarine at Night&quot; has found its real appearance.

Looking at Picasso&#39;s works again, I suddenly understood. The primitive, bold and strong things deeply attracted me and stimulated my sensory nerves! Picasso used various painting methods to express his own emotions casually. Basically, it was not purely aesthetic, but rational and abstract. He reconstructed and combined objects to bring people newer and deeper feelings!
