collaboration with the Panor\u00e0mic Festival\u2014is organizing a professional event aimed at reflecting on the challenges facing contemporary cultural journalism and creating a space for dialogue among professionals, creators, and the public.<\/p>\n<p>We are living through a period of profound transformation in the way public discourse circulates, and art criticism is no exception. Traditional newspapers and media outlets\u2014which for decades served as the primary space for constructing, disseminating, and legitimizing critical judgment on contemporary art\u2014have seen their influence as cultural tastemakers diminish. Today, a significant portion of the conversation surrounding the visual arts takes place through new digital channels and formats: specialized platforms, online magazines, podcasts, social media, newsletters, and independent projects\u2014all of which have come to play an increasingly vital role in the creation and distribution of content.<\/p>\n<p>This new landscape compels us to revisit some fundamental questions: Who performs the critical function today? Who shapes opinion and narratives regarding contemporary art? From what platforms do they speak, which audiences do they reach, and by what authority?<\/p>\n<p>This event aims to explore these issues by drawing on the experiences of cultural journalists, managers of digital platforms, artists, and content creators who are actively involved in shaping contemporary cultural discourse. Beyond analyzing the evolution of cultural journalism and art criticism, the event seeks to provide tools for understanding how the mechanisms of mediation, influence, and legitimation are currently structured within the visual arts\u2014and to examine the challenges this new ecosystem poses for the future of the sector.<\/p>\n<p>Objectives<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; To analyze the impact of digital transformation on cultural journalism and art criticism.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; To identify the agents, platforms, and formats currently involved in constructing discourse around the visual arts. &#8211; To debate the role of social media, podcasts, independent publishing projects, and other emerging spaces for cultural mediation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; To reflect on current mechanisms of recommendation, authority, and critical legitimation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; To share the experiences and perspectives of professionals working within these new ecosystems of cultural communication.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Program<br \/>\n09:40 \u2013 10:00<\/p>\n<p>Registration and welcome coffee<br \/>\n10:00 \u2013 11:30<\/p>\n<p>The artist as a media agent.

More information <a href=\"http:\/\/Vivimos un momento de profunda transformaci\u00f3n en c\u00f3mo circula el discurso p\u00fablico, y la cr\u00edtica de arte no es una excepci\u00f3n. Los diarios y medios tradicionales, que durante d\u00e9cadas fueron el espacio principal desde el que se constru\u00eda, difund\u00eda y legitimaba el juicio cr\u00edtico sobre el arte contempor\u00e1neo, han visto reducido su peso como prescriptores culturales. Hoy, una parte significativa de la conversaci\u00f3n sobre las artes visuales transita por nuevos canales y formatos digitales: plataformas especializadas, revistas online, podcasts, redes sociales, newsletters y proyectos independientes que han asumido un papel cada vez m\u00e1s relevante en la generaci\u00f3n y difusi\u00f3n de contenidos. Este nuevo escenario obliga a replantear algunas preguntas fundamentales: \u00bfqui\u00e9n ejerce hoy la funci\u00f3n cr\u00edtica? \u00bfQui\u00e9n genera opini\u00f3n y relato sobre el arte contempor\u00e1neo? \u00bfDesde qu\u00e9 espacios habla, a qu\u00e9 p\u00fablicos llega y con qu\u00e9 legitimidad? Esta jornada propone abordar estas cuestiones a partir de las experiencias de periodistas culturales, responsables de plataformas digitales, artistas y creadores de contenidos que participan activamente en la construcci\u00f3n del discurso cultural contempor\u00e1neo. M\u00e1s all\u00e1 de analizar la evoluci\u00f3n del periodismo cultural y de la cr\u00edtica de arte, la jornada quiere ofrecer herramientas para comprender c\u00f3mo se configuran hoy los mecanismos de mediaci\u00f3n, prescripci\u00f3n y legitimaci\u00f3n en el \u00e1mbito de las artes visuales y qu\u00e9 retos plantea este nuevo ecosistema para el futuro del sector. Objetivos - Analizar el impacto de la transformaci\u00f3n digital en el periodismo cultural y la cr\u00edtica de arte. - Identificar a los agentes, plataformas y formatos que actualmente intervienen en la construcci\u00f3n del discurso sobre las artes visuales. - Debatir el papel de las redes sociales, los podcasts, los proyectos editoriales independientes y otros espacios emergentes de mediaci\u00f3n cultural. - Reflexionar sobre los actuales mecanismos de prescripci\u00f3n, autoridad y legitimaci\u00f3n cr\u00edtica. - Compartir experiencias y perspectivas de profesionales que desarrollen su actividad en los nuevos ecosistemas de comunicaci\u00f3n cultural.

We know they are living systems, yet we have learnt to view them as resources that can be managed. It is within this conflicted reality that much of \u00c0lvar Calvet\u2019s work unfolds.<\/p>\n<p>In <em>Aqua et Tempus<\/em>, these concerns converge around the River Aniene. The exhibition showcases the work undertaken during Calvet\u2019s residency in Lazio from 2024 to 2025 and builds on <em>Seven Places, Seven Souls<\/em> and <em>The Seven Souls of the Aniene<\/em>. The Aniene, a tributary of the Tiber, flows through a region containing numerous archaeological remains and hydraulic systems. Calvet approaches it as if trying to read a landscape that has been written and rewritten countless times.<\/p>\n<p>Archaeology plays a central role. Heads, hearts, oil lamps shaped like river trout, banners, sediment coins and small water shrines seem displaced from their time. Calvet is drawn to the ambiguity of the objects. They are both remnants of what has gone before and harbingers of a relationship with water that we cannot yet imagine.<\/p>\n<p>The pieces derive from experiences along the Aniene, from encounters with people connected to the river and from actions that form a secular liturgy. Walking, offering and burying are the three stages of <em>The Seven Souls of the Aniene<\/em> procession. Walking adjusts the body to a different scale; offering establishes a relationship not based on possession; burying introduces a gesture contrary to extraction.<\/p>\n<p>The ritual is not a romantic evocation of nature, but a means of introducing a different way of paying attention. The objects give form to what lies beyond the languages of management, such as the experience of a place or the disappearance of a species. The trout-shaped lamp refers to a species that has disappeared from the Aniene; the seven water shrines relate to seven specific points along the river and the tensions inherent in each. One of these shrines has already formed part of a procession and a burial; the other six, prepared for future processions and burials, remain as forms of anticipation. The coins made from sediment, meanwhile, raise a question about value.<\/p>\n<p>Water cannot be separated from geopolitics. Its flow, distribution and retention determine relationships between territories and communities. The river brings present-day conflicts to light: water as a common asset and an economic resource, and the desire to control its cycles.<\/p>\n<p>In <em>Seven Places, Seven Souls<\/em> Calvet is led, with his eyes covered, by seven people to different sites along the Aniene. Blindness forces him to listen and accept the guidance of people who know and look after the river. Not being able to see helps him notice things that would otherwise escape him.<\/p>\n<p>Somewhere between archaeology and anticipation, between memory and preservation, the objects in <em>Aqua et Tempus<\/em> remain as time capsules; they conserve the memory of what has already passed and keep the possibility of what is yet to come alive. The issue is not only what we have lost, but what we are still able to preserve.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"loop-item\" data-elementor-id=\"380\"

class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The CCCB is an institution that, consistently throughout its history, has defined itself as \u201ca multidisciplinary cultural center dedicated to exploring the major themes of contemporary society through diverse languages \u200b\u200band formats.\u201d In its thirty-two years of history, topics such as artificial intelligence, the brain, suburban culture, and figures from diverse fields\u2014Chris Ware, Agn\u00e8s Varda, Stanley Kubrick, the Marquis de Sade, and, more recently, Merc\u00e8 Rodoreda\u2014have shaped exhibition and public programs capable of offering multiple approaches and levels of interpretation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cccb.org\/en\/w\/exhibitions\/the-cult-of-beauty\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Cult of Beauty<\/em><\/a> addresses one of these great universal themes. As Umberto Eco pointed out, beauty is an aspiration shared by all cultures, although it has never been an absolute or immutable category. Its relevance is especially significant today, when it continues to be a social construct profoundly influenced by the beauty industry, the attention economy, and social media. The exhibition stems from a cultural and political stance that doesn\u2019t so much aim to define beauty as to analyze the mechanisms that sustain its cult.<\/p>\n<p>The show is, in fact, an adaptation of the exhibition of the same name presented at the <a href=\"https:\/\/wellcomecollection.org\/exhibitions\/the-cult-of-beauty\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wellcome Collection in London in 2023<\/a>. The original curator, Janice Li, has been joined by researchers blanca arias and J\u00falia Llull, whose contributions expand the initial narrative and incorporate more pluralistic, critical perspectives, open to dissent.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition begins deliberately chronologically, guiding the visitor through classical ideals of beauty, based on principles of proportion, gender, and virtue. However, this seemingly stable narrative is interrupted by artworks that introduce fissures and raise questions. The works of Lorenza B\u00f6ttner and Carlos Motta, among others, problematize these normative models and demonstrate the extent to which beauty has historically functioned as a device for inclusion and exclusion.<\/p>\n<p>As the exhibition progresses, dichotomies such as beautiful\/ugly or virtue\/failure begin to crumble, although others continue to operate strongly, especially the association between beauty and youth. Forms of exclusion persist, albeit in new configurations. From colonial exoticism, capable of objectifying any form of otherness, we move to contemporary mechanisms of invisibility linked to race, gender, or identity. In response, trans, queer, and non-binary collectives have developed strategies of self-expression, resistance, and the construction of collective memory. In this context, Colita\u2019s portraits dedicated to the Roma community, Ang\u00e9lica Dass\u2019s <em>Humanae project<\/em>, with its wide spectrum of skin tones, and Norma P\u00e9rez\u2019s trans portraits engage particularly effectively with the exhibition\u2019s themes.<\/p>\n<p>The exhibition then delves into the complex relationship between beauty, medicine, and science. From the cosmetic practices of ancient Egypt to the anatomical ideals of the Renaissance, the journey leads to the present, where the obsession with image\u2014an extreme result of the society of the spectacle\u2014is amplified by the commercialization of pharmaceuticals, aesthetic treatments, and surgical procedures. The new standards are no longer necessarily associated with proportion or virtue, but increasingly with purchasing power. Beauty thus appears as a privilege that can be bought, with consequences that affect both physical health and emotional well-being. How can we identify these forms of control in order to conquer greater spaces of autonomy? Where does individual desire end and collective pressure begin? The works of Marina Vargas and Arvida Bystr\u00f6m point precisely to this overflowing of normative limits, making visible the restrictions that underlie any standard.<\/p>\n<p>The installation <em>Mirror, Mirror on the Wall<\/em>, by Xcessive Aesthetics, places the visitor before a distorting mirror that reflects the visual pollution that accompanies our daily experience. An incessant flow of images, filters, algorithms, and aspirational models that we consume through social media, from which it is increasingly difficult to escape, raises numerous questions: Who establishes the standards of beauty today: cultural institutions, the beauty industry, algorithms, or social media? How do filters, artificial intelligence, and digital editing affect our perception of ourselves? Can there be an aesthetic of difference that is not absorbed by the market? Are we witnessing a democratization of beauty or a sophistication of its control mechanisms? Is it possible to imagine a society less obsessed with appearance? What do we lose when we have we turned beauty into an obligation?<\/p>\n<p>But <em>The Cult of Beauty<\/em> is not confined to the exhibition space. As is usual at the CCCB, the project is expanded through a robust <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cccb.org\/en\/w\/exhibitions\/the-cult-of-beauty#section03\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">public program<\/a> featuring thinkers and specialists such as Eloy Fern\u00e1ndez Porta, Remedios Zafra, and the curators themselves. In addition, there is an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cccb.org\/en\/w\/exhibitions\/the-cult-of-beauty#section06\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">educational program for LGBTQ+ youth,<\/a> coordinated by Cordova and developed in collaboration with artists like \u00a5E$Si PERSE and Toni Herv\u00e1s, as well as the film series <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cccb.org\/en\/w\/seasons\/gandules-2026\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Beautiful and Eternal<\/em><\/a>, curated by Desir\u00e9e de Fez for Las Gandules 2026. The selection of fantasy and science fiction films addresses issues such as youth, aesthetic pressure, and the obsession with preserving beauty, extending many of the questions raised by the exhibition onto the screen.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than offering definitive answers, <em>The Cult of Beauty<\/em> invites us to critically reconsider an idea we often take for granted. Because, if beauty has never been a neutral category, perhaps the real challenge lies in asking ourselves who defines it, who benefits from it, and who inevitably falls outside its boundaries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The exhibition <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cccb.org\/en\/w\/exhibitions\/the-cult-of-beauty\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Cult of Beauty<\/em>,<\/a> curated by Janice Li, blanca arias, and J\u00falia Llull, along with its accompanying public program, can be visited and followed at the CCCB until November 8, 2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[<a href=\"https:\/\/a-desk.org\/en\/spotlight\/la-belleza-en-disputa\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Art\u00edcle published in A*DESK 5-8-2026]<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"loop-item\" data-elementor-id=\"380\" class=\"elementor elementor-380 e-loop-item e-loop-item-3112 post-3112 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-textos-en\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\" data-custom-edit-handle=\"1\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-85936b4 post-item e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"85936b4\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c4f1488 elementor-widget elementor-widget-theme-post-title elementor-page-title elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c4f1488\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"theme-post-title.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/montsebadia.net\/en\/arts-visuals-col%c2%b7laboracions-i-formacio-en-temps-de-precarietat-i-expansio-museistica\/\">Visual Arts.
