Agnès Varda

The Pieces Speak

The exhibition "Agnès Varda" as seen by master’s degree students

Free with pre-booking

During the doors-open afternoon visit to the exhibition, a group of master’s degree students shares with visitors their personal interpretations of a selection of pieces.

"The Pieces Speak" is designed to create connections between exhibitions and public, leaving behind the traditional dynamic in which the visitor looks at the pieces and reads the informative texts. Here, conversely, during the doors-open afternoon visit to the exhibition, a group of students on the master’s degree in Museology and Heritage at the University of Barcelona will be sharing with everyone who is interested their personal opinions and interpretations of the pieces they consider of greatest interest, creating a space for dialogue and reflection.

The idea arose at the Louvre in Paris in response to the disconnect between museums and the public, with the aim of abandoning the idea of visiting an exhibition as a purely contemplative activity. The CCCB is sharing this idea and exploring new ways of understanding the concept of exhibition, involving not just professionals but also students in its development.

The exhibition "Agnès Varda. Photograph, Film, Recycle" traces the life, work and fascinating stories of a free, modern creator who was committed to her political and social environment. Agnès Varda was a photographer, artist and filmmaker, and a pioneer of the Nouvelle Vague.
